dd uses piriton which seems to offer her some relief.
will be watching to see if there is anything else that is more effective.

Go and see your doctor and get it free on prescription.

Zirtek syrup, otherwise known as Benadryl. I'm not sure what the label says re age limits, but dd2 was told to take it by the GP when she was 2.5 - did'nt really need it much last year, but now (3.5) she has it every morning and it does the trick.

I only use Piriton if she is very runny/sneezy at night, because its sedative.
