Frequently asked questions

What is Nurofen Für Kinder used for?+
Nurofen Für Kinder is an oral ibuprofen suspension used to lower fever, relieve mild to moderate pain such as headache, toothache or sore throat, and reduce inflammation associated with minor injuries in pediatric patients.
How does ibuprofen work?+
Ibuprofen works by non‑selectively blocking the cyclooxygenase‑1 and cyclooxygenase‑2 enzymes, which reduces the production of prostaglandins. Lower prostaglandin levels diminish pain signals, lower body temperature, and lessen inflammation.
What is the usual dose for children?+
The dose for children is determined by a prescriber based on the child’s age and weight. Healthcare professionals calculate the appropriate milligram amount per kilogram and provide dosing instructions on the product label or prescription.
Is Nurofen Für Kinder safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?+
Ibuprofen is generally not recommended for use during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, and should be used with caution while breastfeeding. Parents should consult a healthcare professional before giving the product to a nursing mother.
How do I order Nurofen Für Kinder from GNH USA?+
To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnh-usa.com specifying the required quantity. GNH USA works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and required import documentation.
How does Nurofen Für Kinder compare with the main alternative, paracetamol?+
Both ibuprofen and paracetamol reduce fever and pain, but ibuprofen also has anti‑inflammatory properties. Ibuprofen may be preferred when inflammation is a component, while paracetamol is often chosen for children who cannot tolerate NSAIDs or have certain gastrointestinal concerns.
How should Nurofen Für Kinder be stored and handled?+
Store the suspension at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C, in its original container. Keep it away from direct sunlight, moisture and heat. Ensure the bottle is tightly closed after each use to maintain product stability.

The medication is given orally using the supplied measuring device. The prescriber or label indicates the exact volume to administer based on the child’s weight. Shake the bottle gently before each dose to ensure uniform distribution.
What are the most serious risks to watch for?+
Serious risks include severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis, angioedema), gastrointestinal bleeding or ulceration, liver enzyme elevation, kidney impairment, and rare skin conditions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these occur.
Who should not use Nurofen Für Kinder?+
Children with known hypersensitivity to ibuprofen or other NSAIDs, those with active gastrointestinal ulcers, severe renal or hepatic disease, or a history of asthma triggered by NSAIDs should avoid using this product unless directed by a physician.
