When you look at the pack it shows a baby and a young girl sleeping, with the words for children and babies from 3 months.If you look a little closer to all the information regarding dosage and uses it would then be clear that it can be used for anyone over the age of 3 months, yes that includes babies, children, adults and the elderly.
What is it used for KARVOL PLUS Well as the words on the pack state it is a decongestant. It is used blocked up noses and congestion that are usually caused by the good old common head cold.

Careful when snipping these as you may be aiming it in someone's eye and if you are giving it a gentle squeeze with out realising you may just cause someone a bit of discomfort if squirted in the eyes or mouth.
KARVOL PLUS For babies and young children : Once you have snipped then end of you then dab it onto a handkerchief and fasten it near to the child but not where a child could get hold of it. You should follow these guidelines for use during the day or night.
