If your child is already taking any other medicines that contain paracetamol, it’s important to avoid giving Calpol, as too much paracetamol can cause serious health issues. If you're unsure about this medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

If your child spits out the dose or vomits shortly after taking Calpol, it may be hard to judge how much of the medication they’ve absorbed. In this case, it’s best to wait until the next scheduled dose. If you're unsure, you can always consult with your GP or pharmacist for further guidance.
