Product Summary

Anbesol Liquid helps relieve pain and discomfort associated with teething in children from 5 months of age, when other non-medicinal methods, such as massaging of the gums or the use of teething rings, do not provide the necessary relief.

The product may also be used by adults, children, and the elderly for the temporary relief of pain caused by recurrent mouth ulcers and denture irritation.

Directions

  • Adults and the elderly: Apply undiluted Anbesol Liquid to the affected area using the fingertip.
  • Two applications of Anbesol Liquid will normally be enough for temporary pain relief. If necessary, apply again after 3 hours.
  • Babies' teething and children: Apply undiluted Anbesol Liquid to the affected area using the fingertip. If necessary, apply again after 3 hours.
  • Do not apply more than 6 times in one day (24-hour period).
  • If the child vomits, spits out or swallows the medicine, do not use any more product immediately. Instead, wait 3 hours before using the medicine again.
  • If the child’s symptoms get worse, do not improve after 7 days of treatment, or you are concerned that the child is unwell, talk to a healthcare professional.
  • Do not use for more than 7 days for each teething episode.

  • Active ingredients: Lidocaine Hydrochloride 0.9% w/w, Chlorocresol 0.1% w/w, Cetylpyridinium Chloride 0.02% w/w.
  • Also contains: Alcohol 96%, Menthol, Glycerol, Purified Water, E104, E110, E123, E142
