mixing pain relief

[chicca]

I have a feeling I have asked this before but here goes.

DS having teething night from hell (pretty usual in these parts) and has settled after some Baby Nurofen. Don't reckon he will be able to last the full 6 hours before he is screaming in agony again though. Am I right in thinking that it is ok to give paracetamol alongside ibuprofen? i.e I can give him some Calpol before his 6 hours are up??

Yes you can mix them, was advised this at NHS direct, leave a small gap between doses, say 2 hours or so.

yes you can use them together

Great - just the reassurance i needed!
