As children get older their needs can change. That’s why Calpol have createdCALPOL® SIXPLUS™ Fastmelts. The only dissolve-in-the-mouth tablet with a fruity strawberry flavour, to provide on-the-go pain relief for kids 6 years and over. It’s not always convenient to carry liquid pain relief that can be messy to dispense. So Calpol have designed Fastmelts to be convenient to carry around and easy to use. Great when your travelling and on the go.
They’re formulated with more than twice the strength of infant paracetamol to provide effective, soothing relief from pain and fever and start to work on fever in just 15 minutes, whilst being gentle on your child’s tummy. Colour and sugar free. CONTAINS PARACETAMOL.
As with all medications, some users may experience side effects when using Calpol 6 Plus Fast Melts – however, most will not.
The most common side effect is a mild laxative effect.
In some cases, there may be an allergic reaction to either paracetamol or another ingredient. Signs of an allergic reaction include swelling of the face, tongue or throat, difficulty swallowing, unexplained wheezing, shortness of breath, rash or hives.
In very rare cases, some people taking paracetamol may become unusually tired, see unexpected bruising or bleeding and become more prone to infections (such as colds) than usual.
Very rare cases of serious skin reactions have been reported. Symptoms may include skin reddening, blisters and rashes.
If you experience any of these symptoms, stop using this medication immediately and contact your doctor or pharmacist.
