I have only ever used this because it is the most publicised and well knows brand. It is recommended and spoken about by doctors and nurses so I would prefer to use this on a supermarket version

Works wonders but i find the syringe that comes with the product can be quite tricky.. i can allow the medication to cone out a little quick and makes my little one choke. So i now place syringe at the side of the mouth and release.

I've been using calpol with for my little boy since he was 12 weeks old, he is now 9 months old and it has helped with the couple of colds and viruses he has had and has also helped with his teething

A market leader and trustworthy. My little one liked the taste so not too difficult to give it to him. Good syringe provided.

Easy to administer and baby doesn't mind the flavour so doesn't get spat back out. Works well and is a trusted brand, so worth the price.

When my baby was refusing his bottle as his gums were so sore from teething Calpol was amazing. One dose and within 10-15 minutes he was happy to take the bottle. It eased his symptoms and helped to soothe him so quickly. The included 'syringe' is really easy to use and simple to clean. My baby also seemed to like the flavour and therefore swallowed the medicine well.
