Yes, adults can take Nurofen for Children oral suspension 3 months to 9 years 100mg/5ml. However, please note that Nurofen for Children is a lower strength formulation than Nurofen for adults. This is because children have smaller bodies and are more sensitive to ibuprofen.

The adult dose of Nurofen is 200-400mg every 4-6 hours, up to a maximum of 1200mg per day. One 5ml spoonful of Nurofen for Children contains 100mg of ibuprofen, so adults would need to take 2-4 spoonfuls every 4-6 hours.

Nurofen for Children is not suitable for:

• Children under 3 months of age
• Children who are allergic to ibuprofen or other NSAIDs
• Children with a history of stomach ulcers or bleeding
• Children with severe kidney disease or liver disease
