Calpol?
I would have thought that 2 doctors, especially who have been so belligerent in their own defence in public, would be quicker to point out that calpol is just paracetamol and doesn't contain any sedatives.

Or were they too busy trying not to to look guilty to think straight?

Nah, but Medised does
and every doctor I know with kids uses it (it's great!)

Calpol
Calpol, it's an 'infant suspension' and if used in excess can have very strong sedative effects.

Only in doses
high enough to give you liver failure.

When I used to babysit, a lot of parents would say they had 'dosed them up on Calpol'
so they wouldn't be any trouble... how reassuring, I always thought. I think the doses were generally large...
