What It Is & How It Works

Active Ingredient

Each tablet contains Ibuprofen 100 mg, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Ibuprofen works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins — chemical messengers in the body that cause pain, fever, and inflammation. By reducing prostaglandin levels, Children’s Motrin helps bring down your child’s temperature, eases discomfort, and calms inflammation.

Classification

This product is classified as an Over-the-Counter (OTC) medicine, meaning it can be purchased without a prescription in Kenya. However, always consult a pharmacist or doctor if you are unsure about its suitability for your child.

Fever (pyrexia) including post-vaccination fever

Possible Side Effects

Rare but serious — seek immediate medical attention: Allergic reactions (rash, swelling of face/throat, difficulty breathing), blood in stool or urine, or severe stomach pain.

This is not a complete list of side effects. Consult a pharmacist or doctor for full information.
