Calpol 120 Oral Suspension contains paracetamol (120 mg) which acts on your child's body as follows:

• Inhibits Cyclooxygenase Enzymes: Paracetamol works by blocking certain enzymes known as cyclooxygenase (COX) in your child's central nervous system (CNS). These enzymes are responsible for making prostaglandins which cause pain and inflammation.

• Reduces Prostaglandins: By inhibiting COX enzymes, paracetamol effectively decreases the amount of prostaglandins. This results in reduced pain signals between nerve endings and the brain, providing relief from pain and fever in your child.

• Store Calpol 120 Oral Suspension not exceeding 30°C.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Ensure the bottle is tightly closed after use to prevent air exposure.

• It's crucial to keep the medicine out of reach of children and pets.

• When your child is suffering from fever or discomfort due to cold, ensure they stay hydrated. Offering water, fresh juices, and soups can help manage fever symptoms effectively.

• Encourage your child to rest more when they have body aches or fever. This helps their body recover faster and complements the action of Calpol 120 Oral Suspension.
