Hello,
Along with acetaminophen this brand contains mineral oil and steric acid etc. If he is not allergic to them then no worry. Give acetaminophen according to the body weight. If he is allergic then please consult with your pediatrician he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
