Don't think it helped my little boy much when he had a cold and a sore throat but did help a little. May have worked better if he had a different illness

Ibuprofen has been most effective for teething pain and has become our first choice of pain relief over others.

Thought it was a bit over priced when u can get another brand cheaper. Did what it was meant for though so product was good, just not sure I could justify the price.
