5.99 cough syrup (asking for a friend)

PrimRoseMama · January 2015

My friend has triplet 4 month olds with cough. They've been to the doctor (and she plans on going back ASAP).

She wanted to ask me about cough syrup, but at that age my doctor didn't permit any type of meds (save atabuterol breathing treatments).

I remember @etoille‌ used Zarbees cough syrup? I've never used it-- but would you recommend a mom-card type call for some relief for the LO with a cough?

I told her to ask her doc, but I figured I'd ask here too.

This one says ages 2 months plus.

We used it. It has agave syrup in it. It is very thick to go down so watch for choking.

Thanks ladies. She is concerned they'll end up in hospital & I am trying to help her out. Y'all are the best! :x

Addie's doctor allowed us to use Benadryl when she had a terrible cough - alleviating the congestion should alleviate the coughing. But I know Addie was at least over 6 months at the time.

We also buy the Vick's plug in things. Who knows if it really helps, but it makes you feel like you are doing more to help.

We use it, but now, now then. Honey would be my concern.

Ditto what @casey78‌ said. When Oliver was 3 months he had a nasty cough and cold and we did vapo bath, rub, humidifier, and elevating. He slept way better in the rock n play, too. We didn't start using zarbees until much later, but it does help a lot.
