Adol 120mg/5ml Paracetamol Pain & Fever Relief Syrup, 100ml

Adol 120mg/5ml Paracetamol Syrup provides fever and pain relief for infants and children in a pleasant-tasting oral suspension. The 120mg per 5ml concentration is the standard pediatric Paracetamol formulation that allows weight-based dose calculation using the included measuring device. Paracetamol is the first-choice analgesic and antipyretic for children due to its well-characterized safety profile at correct doses and absence of the risks associated with NSAIDs in pediatric use.

Specs

• Active ingredient: Paracetamol 120mg per 5ml
• Form: Oral syrup / suspension
• Volume: 100ml
• Suitable for: Infants and children - weight-based dosing
• Action: Analgesic / Antipyretic

Benefits

• The 120mg/5ml concentration is calibrated for the dose ranges appropriate for infants and young children, where weight-based dosing in the range of 10 to 15mg/kg provides effective and safe paracetamol therapy
• Paracetamol is the safest first-line analgesic and antipyretic for children - it does not carry the gastrointestinal, platelet, and Reye's syndrome risks of Aspirin, or the renal and cardiac risks associated with NSAIDs in younger patients
• Fever reduction is a primary clinical priority in unwell children because elevated temperature causes significant discomfort, disrupts sleep, and can cause febrile convulsions in predisposed younger children
• The pleasant taste significantly reduces the struggle of administering medicine to sick children, improving the likelihood that the full measured dose is swallowed rather than spat out or refused
• The 100ml bottle provides multiple doses - at 5ml doses, it provides 20 single doses, which is sufficient for a full 4 to 5-day illness episode at the maximum 4-times-daily frequency

How to Use

• Calculate the dose from the dosing table based on the child's current weight in kg
• Use the oral syringe or measuring spoon provided - never estimate with a household spoon
• Administer every 4 to 6 hours as needed for fever or pain
• Do not exceed 4 doses in any 24-hour period
• Leave at least 4 hours between doses
• Shake the bottle before each use
• Do not give alongside other paracetamol-containing medicines
• Consult a physician if fever persists beyond 3 days, if the child is under 3 months old, or if symptoms worsen
