SIZE: 200ML BOTTLE (WITH MEASURING SPOON)
Calpol Infant is a trusted, gentle liquid medication formulated specifically for babies and young children. It contains Paracetamol, a well-established analgesic (painkiller) and antipyretic (fever reducer). This strawberry-flavored, sugar-free suspension is designed to be easy for infants to swallow and is gentle on delicate little stomachs.
This 200ml bottle provides effective relief for a wide range of childhood discomforts, including:
Fever: Quickly reducing high temperatures, including those following vaccinations (post-immunization pyrexia).
Teething Pain: Soothing sore gums as new teeth emerge.
Common Cold & Flu: Relieving the aches, pains, and general "unwell" feeling of viral infections.
Earache & Headache: Providing targeted pain relief for localized discomfort.
Minor Aches: Relief from sore throats and typical childhood bumps and bruises.
Paracetamol (120mg per 5ml): A safe and effective dose tailored for the developing systems of infants and toddlers.
Note: Always use the measuring spoon provided. Never exceed 4 doses in any 24-hour period.
| Age of Child | Dose |
| 2–3 Months | 2.5ml (One dose only; a second 2.5ml dose can be given after 4–6 hours if needed). |
| 3–6 Months | 2.5ml every 4–6 hours. |
| 6–24 Months | 5ml every 4–6 hours. |
| 2–4 Years | 7.5ml ($5\text{ml} + 2.5\text{ml}$) every 4–6 hours. |
| 4–6 Years | 10ml ($5\text{ml} + 5\text{ml}$) every 4–6 hours. |
Shake the Bottle: Always shake the bottle for at least 10 seconds before use to ensure the medicine is correctly mixed.
Measure Carefully: Use the double-ended spoon provided ($2.5\text{ml}$ small end, $5\text{ml}$ large end).
Frequency: Leave at least 4 hours between doses.
Duration: Do not give for more than 3 days without consulting a doctor or our pharmacist.
Weight Matters: If your child was born prematurely or is very small for their age, consult our pharmacist for a weight-based dose.
Other Medicines: Do not give this with any other products containing paracetamol. Check cold and flu remedies carefully.
Post-Vaccination Fever: For babies aged 2–3 months, if a fever persists after two 2.5ml doses following a vaccination, seek medical advice.
Allergies: This product is sugar-free and color-free, but check the label if your child has a known sensitivity to preservatives like parabens.
Indicated For: Infants and children aged 2 months to 6 years. For children over 6, Calpol 6 Plus (250mg/5ml) is generally recommended.
Q: How fast will it work?
A: Calpol usually starts to lower a fever and relieve pain within 15 to 30 minutes after administration.
Q: My baby spit some out; can I give more?
A: If it is difficult to tell how much was swallowed, do not give another dose immediately. Wait at least 4 hours until the next scheduled dose to avoid the risk of overdose.
Q: Does it need to be kept in the fridge?
A: No. Store it in a cool, dry place ($<25°C$) away from direct sunlight. Ensure the cap is securely fastened and out of reach of children.
