    yes i do second the hylands tablets but I am after fast pain relief when needed, like brauers, hylands are homeopathic so they have to build up a little bit in body to be useful.

    Minny, I tried to get Painstop for DS a few months ago and they wouldn't sell it to me because he is younger than 2! Benefits of a small town I suppose

    Ok I just checked and the Ibuprofen we got for DS is labelled "Pharmacist" brand. IT is free from Sucrose, alcohol (That's nice to know lol) gluten, yeast, wheat starch, paracetamol, lactose, artificial colouring and dairy products. I tried to get another bottle the other day and our chemist has none and expects no more for at least 3 weeks Maybe I need to get MIL to go in and get me some Painstop? And why didn't i think of that before??

    That's interesting Minny, thanks for that info. I will have to go have a look for some next time we are out of town. I used it years ago when DD was little. It knocked her out for a ridiculous amount of time, something like 14 hours i think?? And i didn't even give her a full dose!
