Children's Cold & Flu

Colds are common in children, especially during colder months. Shop children’s cold & flu options for short-term symptom relief when your child has a runny or blocked nose, sneezing, sore throat discomfort, or a cough. This range includes parent-friendly formats such as children’s oral suspensions for fever and aches (where suitable by age), children’s cough syrups/linctus for dry/tickly or chesty coughs (check the pack for age guidance), and kids’ nasal sprays (including saline) for blocked nose relief.

To choose safely, match the product to your child’s main symptom and check the minimum age, strength and dosing instructions on the label and leaflet. Some remedies contain paracetamol or ibuprofen, so avoid giving two medicines with the same active ingredient and be cautious with multi-symptom products. Prefer targeted, single-symptom options first, then consider multi-symptom products only if needed. Use the supplied measuring device, track timings and daily limits, and ask a pharmacist if you’re unsure what’s appropriate. If symptoms get worse or do not improve after a few days (or after 10 days overall), seek advice—especially for very young children.


Shop by Children’s Cold & Flu type

Popular types of children’s cold & flu products

  • Paracetamol suspensions (fever and pain relief where suitable by age)
  • Ibuprofen oral suspensions (fever and pain relief where suitable by age)
  • Kids’ congestion nasal sprays (including saline sprays that may help ease a blocked nose)
  • Children’s cough syrups/linctus (choose by cough type and pack guidance)
  • Single-dose sachet formats (convenient doses where the label confirms suitability)

How to choose the right option

  • Check the minimum age first: many cough and cold medicines are only suitable from certain ages.
  • Match to the main symptom: fever/aches, congestion, sore throat discomfort, or cough.
  • Prefer targeted options: choose single-symptom relief first, then consider multi-symptom products only if needed.
  • Avoid ingredient overlap: don’t use two products containing the same active ingredient (for example, paracetamol in more than one medicine).
  • Measure doses accurately: use the supplied syringe/spoon and track timings and daily limits.
  • Get advice if unsure: especially if your child is very young, has asthma, takes other medicines, or has an ongoing condition.

FAQs

What can I give my child for cold or flu symptoms?

Most colds improve with time. For symptom relief, choose an option that matches the main symptom and is clearly labelled for your child’s age. If you’re unsure what’s suitable, a pharmacist can help you choose safely.

Can I give a children’s cold & flu medicine with paracetamol or ibuprofen?

Only if you have checked the active ingredients first. Some cold & flu products already contain paracetamol or ibuprofen, so combining medicines can risk giving too much. If you need help choosing what can be used together, ask a pharmacist.

What helps a blocked nose in children?

Saline nasal sprays are a common option and may help ease congestion. If congestion is severe or persistent, or your child is very young, ask a pharmacist or GP for guidance.

How do I choose the right children’s cough medicine?

Choose based on the cough type (dry/tickly vs chesty/productive) and only use a product that is labelled as suitable for your child’s age. Seek advice if the cough is persistent, worsening, or affects breathing.

How long do children’s cold symptoms usually last?

Colds often improve within about a week, but a cough can last longer. If your child is not getting better after 10 days, or you’re worried at any point, seek advice from a pharmacist or GP.

Does my child need antibiotics for a cough or cold?

Colds are usually caused by viruses, and antibiotics are not used for viral infections. If symptoms are severe, not improving, or you’re worried about a chest or ear infection, speak to a GP or pharmacist.

When should I seek urgent medical help?

Seek urgent advice if your child has difficulty breathing, is unusually drowsy, cannot keep fluids down, shows signs of dehydration, has a persistent high fever, or you are concerned about rapidly worsening symptoms.

Safety note: Children’s cold & flu remedies are medicines and may not be suitable for every child. Always read the label and patient information leaflet, follow dosing instructions exactly, and avoid combining products with overlapping ingredients. If symptoms are severe, worsening, or you’re unsure what to choose, speak to a pharmacist or contact your GP for personalised advice.
