Safe New Children's Medicines Launched for Cough, Cold and Flu Season
Date:10/3/2008

ks against the body, but a homeopathic cough syrup like Children's Chestal acts as an expectorant."

New packaging for Children's Oscillococcinum and Children's Coldcalm highlights the sweet-tasting, kid-friendly pellets that dissolve under the tongue. No water, chewing or swallowing is required.

Children's Oscillococcinum should be taken at the first sign of feeling achy or run-down to nip flu-like symptoms in the bud. Containing 6 doses to be given in 6-hour intervals as necessary, Children's Oscillococcinum is expected to retail for $11.99. It is safe for children 2 years of age and older.

While many cold medicines treat only a symptom or two, Children's Coldcalm is a complete multi-symptom cold reliever for sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion and minor sore throat pain. To be taken in 2-hour intervals as necessary, the 32-dose unit of Children's Coldcalm is expected to retail for $9.99 and is safe for children 3 years of age and older.

Both are from Boiron, maker of Oscillococcinum(R), which has been relied upon by families around the world for more than 65 years. All Boiron products are regulated as drugs by the FDA(1) and are clearly labeled for specific indications, making directions easy for parents to understand. They are manufactured according to the highest standards, complying with drug Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) and the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS).

Parents can now quickly and affordably pick up these OTC medicines without a prescription in the children's aisle or in the cough, cold and flu section of health food stores and independent pharmacies nationwide. For more information, visit http://www.boironusa.com.
