Make less mess with medicine

Once you’ve carefully measured out the medicine your child needs, getting it into them, rather than everywhere else, can be a tricky business.

 

One thing that can make it a little easier is a syringe and the good news is CALPOL® Infant Suspension and CALPOL® SIXPLUS® are now available with an easy dosing syringe.

 

For more help with dosing your little one, watch our video to see how Dr. Carol Cooper recommends you go about it.
