Medication name: Nurofen Suspension Strawberry Flavour 150 ml
\nDrug class: Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) contains ibuprofen
\nUse: This medication is used in children to relieve mild to moderate pain such as headache, toothache, sore throat, earache, or pain from teething.
\nIt is also used to reduce fever associated with colds, flu, or immunization reactions.<\/p>\n
How it works: The active ingredient, ibuprofen, works by reducing the production of prostaglandins natural chemicals in the body that cause pain, inflammation, and fever.
\n By blocking these chemicals, ibuprofen helps lower fever and relieve pain and swelling effectively.<\/p>\n
Dosage and administration: Shake the bottle well before each use. Each 5 ml contains 100 mg of ibuprofen. The dose depends on the child\u2019s age and weight.
\nFor example, children aged 3\u20136 months (over 5 kg) may take 2.5 ml every 6\u20138 hours as needed, up to 3 times in 24 hours.
\nChildren aged 1\u20133 years may take 5 ml every 6\u20138 hours, and children aged 4\u20136 years may take 7.5 ml every 6\u20138 hours.
\n Do not exceed 4 doses in any 24-hour period, and leave at least 6 hours between doses.
\nAlways use the provided measuring syringe or spoon, and preferably give it with or after food to reduce stomach irritation.<\/p>\n
Side effects: Most children tolerate ibuprofen well.
\nMild side effects may include stomach discomfort, nausea, or heartburn.
\n Rare but serious reactions include rash, allergic swelling, wheezing, or blood in vomit or stool.
\n Stop treatment and seek medical advice if any severe reaction occurs.<\/p>\n
Precautions: Do not use if the child is allergic to ibuprofen, aspirin, or any other NSAIDs.
\n Avoid use in children with a history of stomach ulcers, severe liver, heart, or kidney disease, dehydration, or asthma triggered by painkillers.

\nDo not combine with other ibuprofen- or aspirin-containing medications.<\/p>\n
