Nosefrida Nasal Aspirator - A Parent's Alternative to Medicines on the Verge ...( MIAMI Oct. 5 /- Any well-informed...),Health

MIAMI, Oct. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- Any well-informed parent knows about the FDA's impending ban on children's cold medicines. With cold & flu season upon us, parents scramble to find other ways to alleviate their children's congestion. Nosefrida nasal aspirator -- a Swedish product recently introduced into the U.S. -- offers a safe and effective defense against sleepless nights and stuffy noses.

Dr. Tina Caroll-Scott, MD, FAAP, Director of Miami Children's Clinic, says, "the FDA's proposed ban on kids' cold medicines is long overdue.

Extending from the nozzle is a fifteen inch plastic tube that allows parents to use their own suction to extract the mucus from their child's nose. This unique configuration enables parents to provide the necessary pressure needed to clear their child's congestion. Disposable filters prevent the user from coming into contact with the extracted mucus.

A child will endure an average of 12 colds within their first two years of life. With approximately 14 million U.S. children in this range, that makes for a lots of stuffy noses, uncomfortable babies, and concerned parents. Congestion interferes with a child's ability to breathe, eat and sleep. "Nosefrida gives the parents
