Perrigo Ibuprofen 7+ 200mg/5ml Oral Suspension for Children's Pain Relief

 

This ibuprofen oral suspension provides effective pain relief and fever reduction for children aged 7 years and over. Each 5ml dose contains 200mg of ibuprofen, formulated as a liquid medicine that's easier for children to take than tablets. The suspension offers reliable relief from common childhood ailments including headaches, toothache, earache, and symptoms associated with colds and flu.

The 100ml bottle provides multiple doses and comes with a measuring spoon to ensure accurate dosing. This formulation is particularly suitable for children who have difficulty swallowing solid medicines or prefer liquid alternatives.

 

How Ibuprofen Works to Reduce Pain and Inflammation

 

Ibuprofen belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in your body that cause pain, inflammation, and fever. By reducing prostaglandin levels, ibuprofen effectively decreases pain signals and lowers elevated body temperature.

The liquid formulation allows for faster absorption compared to solid forms, typically providing relief within 30-60 minutes of administration. The anti-inflammatory properties also help reduce swelling associated with injuries or infections.

 

Suitable for Children Aged 7 Years and Over

 

This ibuprofen suspension is specifically indicated for children aged 7 years and above who weigh at least 20kg. It's particularly useful for managing various painful conditions that commonly affect school-age children. For younger children or those requiring different dosing, you may want to explore other options in our pain relief collection.

The medicine is suitable for treating:

  • Headaches and migraines
  • Dental pain and toothache
  • Earache and throat pain
  • Muscular aches and growing pains

 

Orange-Flavoured Formula for Better Acceptance

 

The suspension features an orange flavour to improve palatability and encourage compliance in children who may be reluctant to take medicine. This flavouring helps mask the natural taste of ibuprofen whilst maintaining the medicine's effectiveness. The liquid consistency makes it easier to swallow than tablets or capsules.

The formulation is sugar-free, making it suitable for children with dietary restrictions or those concerned about dental health. Each dose provides consistent medication delivery when measured accurately using the provided measuring spoon.

 

Storage Requirements and Shelf Life

 

Store this medicine in a cool, dry place below 25°C and keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use. Do not refrigerate or freeze the suspension. Keep out of sight and reach of children when not being administered. Once opened, use within the timeframe specified on the packaging.

Check the expiry date before each use and do not use if the medicine has passed its expiry date. Shake the bottle well before each dose to ensure the medicine is properly mixed.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

 

Recommended Dosage for Children Aged 7 Years and Over

Give one 5ml dose (containing 200mg ibuprofen) up to three times daily as needed. Allow at least 6 hours between doses and do not exceed three doses in any 24-hour period. Use the measuring spoon provided to ensure accurate dosing. The medicine can be taken with or after food to reduce the risk of stomach upset.

Do not give this medicine to children under 7 years of age or weighing less than 20kg. If symptoms persist for more than 3 days or worsen, consult your doctor or pharmacist for further advice.

Administration Instructions and Important Considerations

Shake the bottle thoroughly before each use to ensure the medicine is properly mixed. Measure the dose carefully using only the spoon provided with the medicine. Give the medicine directly from the spoon or mix with a small amount of water or juice if preferred.

Do not exceed the stated dose or give for longer than necessary. If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking a dose, you may give the same dose again. However, if vomiting continues, stop giving the medicine and seek medical advice.
