Ingredients:per 5 ml:
WHEN TO USE
Frequent cough, no runny nose or nasal congestion. I
use this type of medication for dry coughs especially
at night if the cough prevents my child from going to sleep or staying asleep.
Suppressing the cough will usually help your child get some
much-needed rest for a few hours. Daytime coughs usually don’t
bother a child and I only use a cough medication during the
day if the cough is interfering with baby’s eating, napping and
playing. If your child’s cough sounds very moist like he’s
coughing on secretions and there is a lot of mucous in the nose,
then I will use a “multi-symptom” combination of decongestant,
antihistamine and cough suppressant. In this case it will also
be important to follow the “non-medical cold treatments”
as well.
SAFETY/SIDE EFFECTS
It is safe to use in children six months and older for upper
respiratory illness (such as colds and sinus infections).
If your child has a lower respiratory tract illness (like pneumonia,
bronchiolitis or asthma) you should ask your physician before using
cold or cough remedies. Side effects of nausea, dizziness,
and drowsiness infrequently occur with DM-containing cough syrups.
