The image shows a bottle of Ibucet-P, which is a pediatric suspension containing a combination of Ibuprofen and Paracetamol (Acetaminophen).

This combination is commonly used to treat:

• Mild to moderate pain: Such as toothaches, sore throats, or minor injuries.

• Fever: Often used when a single medication (like paracetamol alone) isn’t sufficient to bring down a high temperature.

• Inflammation: Reducing swelling and aches associated with common childhood illnesses.

Important Usage Guidelines

Because this medication is for children and contains two active ingredients, safety is a priority:

• Dosage: Always follow the dosage prescribed by a pediatrician or the instructions on the label based on the child’s weight rather than age. Use the measuring cup or syringe provided with the bottle for accuracy.

• Avoid Overlap: Do not give this alongside other medicines containing paracetamol or ibuprofen (like many cold and flu syrups), as this can lead to a dangerous overdose.

• With Food: It is generally recommended to give this suspension with food or milk to avoid stomach upset, which can sometimes be caused by ibuprofen.

• Shake Well: Always shake the bottle before each use to ensure the active ingredients are evenly distributed.

When to Consult a Doctor

Seek medical advice before using Ibucet-P if:

1. The child has a history of asthma, kidney issues, or stomach problems.

2. The fever or pain persists for more than 3 days.

3. The child develops a rash, swelling, or severe vomiting after taking the dose.
