Panado® understands that even with the best planning, pain or fever in children can still catch you by surprise.
A fever can spike late at night. Teething pain can strike on a weekend away. A temperature can creep up mid-shop, a headache can hit halfway through a long car trip, or a small burn can turn a relaxed afternoon into a stressful one. Readiness means having a plan in place for when children don’t feel well, wherever they happen to be.
Being pain and fever ready isn’t about expecting the worst. It is about knowing that common childhood symptoms are part of growing up, and that understanding how to manage them can take much of the fear and anxiety out of the moment1a. When parents feel calmer and more in control, children feel safer too1b. The calm spreads, easing stress and helping everyone cope better until your little one feels well again1c.
To support readiness in everyday family life, Panado® has introduced the perfect backup every parent needs, offering a practical way to manage pain and fever anytime, anywhere – Panado® Strawberry 5 ml Sachets2. Each sachet contains a single 5 ml dose of Panado® Strawberry Syrup2, powered by paracetamol, an ingredient with more than 150 years of clinical experience3.
The sachets are sealed, hygienic, compact, simple to store and easy to carry, making them ideal for travel and day-to-day outings. Containing the same trusted4 formulation, strength and berry nice flavour parents are familiar with, the Panado® Strawberry 5 ml Sachets2 are ready to work immediately5 and are suitable for babies and children from three months and older.
Slip one into a pocket, handbag, nappy bag, backpack, pram organiser, or car console and you’re always prepared. There is no bottle to pack and no risk of spills. When needed, a sachet is torn or cut open, the correct dose is measured using a syringe or medicine measure, and any remaining liquid is discarded.
To help parents feel confident, dosing is based on a child’s age and weight. Clear guidance is available via the panado.co.za/dosage-calculator online or by scanning the QR code on the pack, reducing guesswork at moments when you want reassurance.
The sachets are part of the Panado® paediatric range, which includes Panado® Strawberry Syrup2, Panado® Peppermint6, suitable from Day 1 and Panado® Infant Drops7. Panado® Infant Drops were named a Product of the Year 2025 winner in the Child Health category8, based on votes from 2,000 South African consumers in a Kantar survey.
When a child has pain or fever, readiness is about having something familiar you can rely on, without scrambling or second guessing. Panado® Strawberry 5 ml Sachets2 supports that peace of mind by fitting into real family life, not just the medicine cupboard at home, so you can focus less on the moment of panic and more on comforting your child.Panado® products are available from Baby City, Pick n Pay, Checkers including Hypers, Shoprite, Clicks, Dis-Chem and independent pharmacies.
