I definitely would recommend the sugar free option and to use a syringe if your child is under 6 months of age. It is effective with 20 minutes.

This works, but it is quite expensive. You can buy own brand product for half the price and it does the same job. However the sachets are useful for keeping in the changing bag as don

Very good for preventing/ lowering fever when they get their immunizations. Also helpful when they have a cold or teething a bit.

It comes with a handy syringe to administer to your baby. My little one seems to quite like the taste and will open up her mouth quite happily for the syringe. I do think it seems to help when she is feeling unwell, it especially helps at night.

Calpol works quickly and effectively. My kids seem to like how it tastes too (strawberry) however I am always on the lookout for a special offer deal which is usually at Aldi
