Tried this as an alternative to Calpol because it was a different flavout and my little boy was being fussy. He loves the flavour of this one. It worked equally well for teething pain as the Calpol did. Used the provided spoon to dose the medicine which worked fine for my little boy.

Very useful syringe measure, helps to dispense with fussier babies. Prefer that it is white, colour difference between the paracetamol and ibuprofen should be mandatory to help tired parents!

Orange flavour is easy to give baby. No smells and it goes down smoothly. But I will not recommended ibrufen for kids only use if calpol is not at all working and never combine doses of calpol and neurofen.

Nurofen is great for a last resort. We tend to use it when everything else has failed us for teething or to help top up relief when we are still on a countdown from calpol. It lasts the night which is fantastic but I'm always cautious of using any ibuprofen as we have a family history of asthma and in case he ever gets chicken pox and we haven't spotted the first symptoms. You always end up paying more for the brand but when it's for my son, I always find myself going back to what we know and trust.

The taste is baby friendly. My daughter loves it. The syringe is a bit too big for really young babies.
