That's why we wanted to provide you with the latest information on over-the-counter children's cough and cold products. The makers of these medicines are voluntarily changing the product labeling to read "Do not use for children under age 4". For products containing antihistamines, labeling will include the instructions "do not use for the purpose of making your child sleepy." These labeling changes are being made in consultation with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and out of an abundance of caution to help avoid unintentional consumer misuse of these products.
Contact the poison control or medical center if you suspect your child has overdosed or taken medicine on his own.
If you have general questions about Triaminic products, contact the Triaminic™ Clinic at 1-800-KIDS-987.
Keep all prescription and over the counter drugs out of reach of children.
Keep medicine in its original container and keep the instructions.
If medication comes in a foil packet, do not remove the tablets from the packet and place in a new container; it is far more difficult for children to remove tablets from the pack than it is from a bottle.
Store medicine according to the information on the label. Medicines should not be refrigerated unless the label so directs.
