Good well known brand, nice strawberry flavour to it which makes it easy for babies to take. On the higher end price wise so worth shopping around as some shops sell it cheaper.

Like the baby syringe that came with the bottle, makes it much easier to administer the medicine to a wriggling baby. Baby did not seem to like the taste initially, but swallowed eventually when given in small a mouthful at a time. Very sticky sweet taste, pink in colour. Used after vaccination and for cough, did not notice any improvement in symptoms.

This is a brand that I know well. It works. However I have to hunt for sugar free! Shouldn't sugar free come as standard not. All Baby medication smells sickly sweet.
