Description
Calpol Syrup 6+ 200ml is a pediatric medication containing paracetamol as its active ingredient. It is used primarily to reduce fever and relieve mild to moderate pain in children aged six years and older.
Paracetamol belongs to the class of analgesics and antipyretics. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain, which helps lower fever and reduce pain sensation.
The syrup form is designed for easy administration to children. Dosage typically depends on the child’s age and weight, with instructions provided on the packaging or by a healthcare professional. For children aged 6 years and above, the dosage is usually measured with the provided dosing syringe or cup, administered every 4 to 6 hours as needed, not exceeding the recommended daily limit.
Common side effects are rare but may include allergic reactions such as rash or swelling. Paracetamol overdose can cause serious liver damage. It is important to follow dosing instructions carefully and avoid concurrent use with other products containing paracetamol.
Calpol Syrup 6+ is intended for oral use and should be used under appropriate guidance.
