STOP!: Stilpain is contraindicated in children under 2, and strongly discouraged in children 2-6. Toothache usually means infection, and requires immediate Dental treatment. You must wait at least 4 hours before administering any other pain med. Ibuprofen for Children works best, follow package directions to the letter. But pain medication will not cure an infection. Try cold compresses, & call Dentist.
