Nurofen Oral Suspension is a fast-acting liquid pain and fever relief medicine formulated specifically for children. Each 5ml spoonful contains ibuprofen, a trusted non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that quickly brings down high temperatures, relieves pain from teething, earaches, colds, and flu, and reduces inflammation.
This medicine is recommended for the relief of:
Fever (including post-immunization fever) and high temperatures
Mild to moderate pain such as teething pain, toothaches, earaches, and headaches
Aches, pains, and discomfort associated with colds, flu, and sore throats
Ibuprofen (100mg per 5ml): An NSAID that works by reducing hormones in the body that cause pain, swelling, and fever.
Other Ingredients: Includes water, glycerol, sodium citrate, sodium chloride, sweeteners (such as maltitol liquid), and fruit flavorings (sugar-free, color-free formulations are available; check the package label for specifics).
🚨 Stomach & Ulcer Precautions:
Do not give this medicine to children who have active stomach ulcers, bleeding disorders, or severe kidney or heart disease. Always give doses with or after food to protect your child's tummy.
🚨 Do Not Combine with Other NSAIDs:
Avoid giving Nurofen alongside other ibuprofen-containing products or aspirin to prevent accidental overdose or harmful side effects.
Standard Dosing Guidelines:
For fever and pain, doses are based on the child's age and weight (typically given every 6 to 8 hours as needed, leaving at least 4 hours between doses).
Not recommended for babies under 3 months old or weighing less than 5kg unless specifically advised by a doctor.
How to Measure: Always shake the bottle well before use and use the oral syringe or measuring spoon provided in the box to measure the exact dose. Never use household kitchen spoons.
Nurofen is generally well-tolerated when used correctly for short periods. Rare or mild effects can include:
Mild stomach upset, nausea, or vomiting (minimized by taking with food)
Allergic skin reactions or mild dizziness in sensitive children
Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C or 30°C, away from direct heat and light.
Check the expiry date and note when the bottle was first opened (some liquid suspensions should be discarded after 6 months of opening).
Keep strictly out of the sight and reach of children.
