What is Calpol Vapour Plug Lavender & Chamomile?
The Calpol Vapour Plug contains a blend of aromatic oils including lavender, chamomile, menthol, camphor and eucalyptus. These oils help to soothe and comfort your child at night time whilst helping to ease breathing.
Non-medicated aromatic vapours provide soothing night time comfort for your child. It’s easy to use, too, just plug it in and it’s ready to go. 10 easy-to-replace refill pads that last up to 8 hours are included in this product.
How to use this product
Always use Calpol Vapour Plug Lavender & Chamomile exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you. Allow 60-90 minutes for the vapour to fill the room. The strength of the vapour will vary depending on room size and ventilation. The vapour will be stronger the closer it is to the user.
To insert a pad, cut across the top of the foil pouch to expose the pad. Using the foil to hold the pad, slide the pad into the slot of the vapour plug. When replacing a used pad, inserting a fresh pad will push out the old one. Dispose of used pads safely without touching them directly. Always wash hands after replacing pads.
Then connect the plug to a power supply. When using the vapour plug with a pad inserted, do not leave the unit in the plug socket for more than 16 hours at a time. After 16 hours, unplug the unit for a few hours before using again. Replace the pad before next use. Do not block the airflow of the vapour plug unit or light sensor on bottom. Unplug the vapour plug when not in use.
To insert a new pad, allow the unit to cool for 10 minutes. Open a refill pad as described above. Inserting a new pad will push out the old one. Be careful whilst removing and inserting the new pads as the device contains hot surfaces. Use only Calpol Vapour Plug Refill Pads with the Calpol Vapour Plug.
