It does not contain Paracetamol.  Ibuprofen may be given every 6-8 hours and may be given up to 4 times a day depending on your child’s age – please read and follow instructions on your medicine bottle.  Ibuprofen should be given with food or a milky drink.  Ibuprofen can have some side effects:  If your child complains of tummy ache after the ibuprofen medicine it may not suit them and it would be advisable to stop giving it.  It may occasionally cause asthmatic children to become wheezy, if this happens it is also advisable to stop giving it. Paracetamol and Ibuprofen will be most effective in controlling moderate pain if they are given at staggered times so that as one type wears off the other starts working.
