Just that really, 6 year old banana hating hayfever suffering child. Only banana piriton in local shop. Have tried googling but most descriptions don't mention the flavour. What else is there?

Loritidine I think it's called

loratadine but that also tastes vile!

We have just moved 7 yr old onto daily tablets.

plus top up with chlorphenamine throughout the day!

Boots do a tablet which is non drowsy and melts in the mouth. Am away so can t check name. She says it tastes ok (has v much disliked other tablets). Ask the staff at the pharmacy counter

My daughter has got chlorphenamine syrup from Lloyd their own make its strawberry flavour. It's the same as piriton just their own brand.

Most generic chlorphenamine medicine is strawberry flavour including Allerief. It's just Piriton that's disgusting mint (or banana?) flavour.

Cetirizine is non drowsy and not banana flavoured. Don't think it's particularly delicious but kids haven't moaned about it either so I suppose it can't be that awful!
