What do Calpol melts taste like? A parent's guide to flavor and texture

3 min read
According to product information and numerous user reviews, Calpol melts are explicitly designed to have a pleasant, sweet strawberry flavour to encourage children to take their medicine. Unlike liquid suspensions, which can sometimes be messy or difficult to administer, these tablets melt rapidly on the tongue without the need for water. This design and flavour profile are key to their success with older children transitioning away from liquid medication.
