you have been given some very good advice here. Despite it sounding a bit icky the PR panadol is actually really good stuff! I have 6 years experience in ED and so have had to try everything at least once. I find that as long as they aren't the kind of child who has the instant reaction of vomiting with panadol that a special technique with a syringe will work. you need to squeeze their cheeks enough to open their mouths and then put the syringe in about an inch and a half. Enough so that you can press down the tongue. If you watch their tongues when you give kids panadol and they don't like it you will notice that their tongues rise to push out the liquid. So if you can stop them from lifting that tongue up, their swallow reflex will take over. If you are gentle but firm and confident it is all over before you can say boo. Having said that I really do think the pr panadol is a great option. Kids don't have the icky factor programmed in at 1 yet and so for them it isn't distressing.

Good luck with whatever you choose to do, and remember you can give panadol and neurofen. Just stick to the daily dosages recommended for each in a day if you choose to give both
