Nurofen for children

[Miss E]

Hey hun re the panadol.. we get Dymadon. Its in a purple box. Its exactly the same as panadol just a different brand.. and is orange flavour. My kids cant stand the panadol flavour, but dymadon is nice, similar to Nurophen.

Oooh thanks for the tip, I'll have to try it because Panadol is such an ordeal to give him.

yeah i also use the dymadon...
both boths have preferred that
i also find brauers good for teething

i personally dont use nurofen - my GP does not recommend it for kids...

DS2 is also d0ing similar sleep patterns - i know he has never been as good as your DS but he also wakes, onlhy wants me, sometimes BF works and sometimes not. he had some bad teething but to be honest i think it is more a stage/developmental... hjope it passes soon...

yeah me too to the Dymadon. DS would spit out panadol (or most of it) so you couldn't tell how much he actually got so we couldn't give him any more for the 4 hours just in case but he doesn't spit out the dymadon. Even have to send the Dymadon to CC when he's not quite happy/right/teething just in case they need to give him some because they have panadol but not the dymadon. (He spits panadol out for them too)

I only rely on the neurofen if the temp is really high for DS (or like I accidently did one day, drop the dymadon and smash it and only have neurofen left on a public holiday whiile out and about at rellies and didn't know if there were any open chemists - none on the way home either)
