Every 4 hours
I mean using them together though. I’ve been told by a few people I can give calpol and Nurofen every other 2 hours (4 hours for each dose) 10am calpol 12 pm Nurofen 2pm calpol Will pop into the pharmacy today to check.
Yes you can, but nurofen shouldn’t be given more than 3 times a day
Thank you! X
Yes you can, just don't exceed the daily dose x
Just don’t use two paracetamol based medicines at the same time and you’ll be ok!
I tend to do one or the other every 3 hours so not to exceed the 4 doses in 24 hours
You can use them together but follow the instructions on the pack
Is it for teething or something else? You can use teething gels etc.

1 dose every 4 hours. Calpol can easily overdose such a small child. Please ready the leaflet that comes with the medicine.
