Piccan Teething Remedy is an over-the-counter soothing pediatric liquid medication. It combines two active ingredients: Paracetamol (a mild analgesic/antipyretic to relieve pain and reduce fever) and Diphenhydramine Hydrochloride (a mild antihistamine to calm irritability and soothe allergic symptoms).
It is formulated specifically to relieve sore gums, facial aches, feverish conditions, and general irritability associated with teething troubles, immunization, or mild colds in infants and young children.
Piccan Teething Remedy provides dual-action comfort for fussing infants:
Relieves Pain & Fever (Paracetamol): Reduces swollen, painful gums, earaches, and low-grade fevers accompanying new tooth emergence.
Calms Restlessness (Diphenhydramine): Reduces mild histamine-driven nasal or skin irritation while helping restless infants settle and sleep comfortably.
🚨 Overdose Risk: Do not combine Piccan with other paracetamol-containing syrups, drops, or cold medicines. Doing so risks an accidental paracetamol overdose, which can damage a young child's liver.
🚨 Infant Caution: Do not give to infants under 3 months of age unless explicitly directed by a pediatrician.
🚨 Usage Limit: Do not use continuously for more than 3 consecutive days without consulting a doctor.

Infants 3 to 12 Months: Give 2.5ml up to 3 times in 24 hours.
Children 1 to 5 Years: Give 5ml up to 3 to 4 times in 24 hours.

Yes, it can. Diphenhydramine is a sedating antihistamine that frequently induces mild drowsiness, which helps calm fussy, painful babies so they can sleep.
Yes. There are no harmful interactions between Piccan and standard daily Vitamin C drops or syrups.
