Medicine cupboard must-have

I find this to be a far more effective anti-pyretic than paracetamol for my two little ones, so wouldn't be without it. Would prefer a syringe, as you get less mess that way, but the children seem to like it so not much gets spilt!

Not the best

The medicine itself is fine, although I would prefer a version with sugar rather than artificial sweeteners. The bottle comes with a spoon rather than a syringe which makes it more difficult to give to babies or half-asleep children. You can use a syringe if you already have one, but the standard bottle-top rather than the special top for using a syringe means its harder to get the last quarter or so out of the bottle.
