How it works
Panadol Junior contains paracetamol, an ingredient that has been used worldwide for decades for the symptomatic treatment of fever and pain. As your trusted health partner, we understand that your child's safety comes first. The suppositories have an analgesic and antipyretic effect, which takes the edge off the discomfort without hindering the natural recovery process. The fatty suppository base has been developed so that insertion proceeds smoothly, which is essential for the comfort of the little ones.
