Children's Motrin Non Staining Dye Free Suspension By willoughbyclan on Oct 28, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I purchased my Children's Motrin Non-Staining Dye Free Oral Suspension at CVS for $5.99. It is the original berry flavor. The bottle is a clear, whitish color with a child proof lid and contains 4 fluid oz. Each teaspoon contains 100 mg of motrin.

I have used Children's Motrin for several years and my daughters have always loved the berry flavor. When I saw this new product I thought it was a great idea not to have the dye, making it non-staining. My first thought was that my 7 year old would not like it because it wouldn't taste the same. She has always asked for the "orange medicine" when she is not feeling well. The first time I tried it with her she said that I wasn't using the right medicine because it was white not orange. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised that she did not notice a difference in the taste at all. I have used it several times since and still no problems. Children's Motrin Non-Staining Dye Free Oral Suspension works just as well as the original version but without the unnecessary dye.
