How It Works

Piccan Teething Syrup works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that cause pain, inflammation, and fever. By blocking cyclooxygenase enzymes, Ibuprofen reduces these prostaglandins, resulting in decreased pain sensation and inflammation in the gums.

Pain relief typically begins within 15-30 minutes after administration. The effects generally last 6-8 hours, providing extended comfort during difficult teething periods.
