Sudafed for children.

Bought it the other day for dd1 advised by pharmasist (sp?)

Anyway I used it with dd1 along with calpol and I swear it's fantastic for stuffy noses (better than medised & vicks)

Also used it took it myself the other day and I swear I has the worsteblocked nose ever and within 20 mins it was all gone.

Anyways dd2 was full of a cold yestereday temp stuffy nose. Tried medised twice within the four hour period lastnight, it didn't do a thing. Gave her the sudafed and bam she was asleep for the rest of the night.

It doesn't have paracetamol in it's purely for head colds and its non drowsy too. So you can use it with calpol but not Medised as they both have the athistamine in.

Anyway yeh just wanted recommend it as this seasons medicine with all these blummin colds about.

Can't belive i'm excited about a frikkin medicine!!

Nutty the taste is a tad shocking to be honest but little ones under six can only have 2.5 ml and over 5 mls. So no trying to get the wee ones to take more, after they nearly chuck up from the first spoon IYKWIM
