Children's medicine

Hi there, looking for some advice. I am aware that it is best not to bring any adult medicine over with me (painkillers etc) but just wondered about Calpol and Nurofen Infant - is that allowed - if not is there an alternative out there. My little one isn't ill that often but it's good to have it in the cupboard.

Thanks in advance.

No need to worry... You can get Calpol in Boots here, along with other brands of infantt & childrens paracetamol ...

You can bring Calpol and Nurofen for personal use.
