User questions & answers

Question:	What is the expiration date
Answer:	Every child is different and, depending on size, weight and age, it may have a different effect. This did not really make my child drowsy at all.
Question:	does this contain xylitol
Answer:	Hello, This product is being fulfilled by Amazon so I cannot see what is being put int the box but I believe the expiration date is 1/2022 or better.
Question:	WHAT are other brands
Answer:	I compared the labels. Seems the ONLY difference is they charge more for the children's version. I'm shocked this isn't being touted and discussed online.
Question:	Is there any non drowsy benadryl available
Answer:	very little makes my child drowsy, so i'm not sure she's a good reference point. Zyrtec is supposed to be non-drowsy.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is it favored
Answer:	It is not flavored and they are very small pink easy to swallow tablets
Question:	Are these tabs unflavored? my little miniature shar pei is way too smart to fall for flavored pills
Answer:	Benadryl is COMMONLY given to dogs - David Chandler provided good advice. Whenever giving any dog a pill, open their mouth with the head tilted back, drop it to the back of the mouth and keeping the head tilted back firmly hold the dog's mouth closed until it tries to lick its lip. That is a sign that your dog has swallowed the pill. Release your grip and praise your dog. SpringGrrl - I encourage you to look at this information regarding Benadryl and dogs https://www.petmd.com/dog/care/can-i-give-my-dog-benadryl-and-if-so-how-much
Question:	Do the pills come in a bottle or individual blister packs
Answer:	They come in a bottle..Our exp date is 03-2019. Auction Inc
Question:	Is this a bottle of 100 pills or is it the blister pack
Answer:	Bottle of 100 pills

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the expiration date on this bottle
Answer:	The expiration date appears on each bottle below the ISBN code. Mine says 11/20. It will vary depending on the date of production and batch.
Question:	What Is It Good For
Answer:	This is good for minor seasonal allergies. You have to take it about every 4 hours, however, so it does not last all day.
Question:	Is the active ingredient the same as Benadryl
Answer:	Benadryl lists its active ingredient as Diphenhydramine HCl 25 mg. Basic Care Allergy Relief medicine lists it's active ingredient as Diphenhydramine HCl Tablets, 25 milligrams. Benadryl charges an immoral price for its diphenhydramine HCl. I've been taking the generic for years with the same physical result that Benadryl gives and a mighty boost to my pocketbook by not choosing Benadryl itself.

Question:	How long does it take to work
Answer:	This container is great! I bought it for my handicapped sister. She has difficulty using her hands and can be clumsy. Each container is easy to snap open and yet easy to snap closed. I don't remember ever having a problem with a lid coming open, unless she wanted it to be open. This is a great product! she loves it; I love it!
Question:	Is this a product of china
Answer:	This organizer is all one piece, however, it's easy to dump one compartment at a time to take with you to lunch or whatever. I do this all the time when I'm going somewhere for the day or when I'm traveling and just need a day's worth of pills in my purse. I save old pill bottles, peel off the labels, and use two or three of them to have that many morning, lunch or evening portions handy, depending on how long I'll be out. The big organizer stays in a drawer at home or in my overnight bag, since I'm always home or settled for the night to take the bedtime pills.
Question:	What is expiry date
Answer:	Yes, it is coil spring retention. https://signifycooper-prd64.adobecqms.net/content/dam/cooper-lighting/brands/halo/spec-sheets/halo-6100-td518106en-sss.pdf

The Perilla plant is native to the Himalayas and the Southeast region of Asia. The leaves are broad, and round to spade like in shape with serrated edges. As a member of the mint family, the leaves are aromatic and herbaceous in flavor and used in many Asian recipes. For supplement purposes, Perilla leaf extract is rich in powerful antioxidants. This ingredient provides antioxidant protection and assists the body in combating environmental pollutants.

Quercetin

Quercetin is a natural plant flavonoid derived from onions. Quercetin is another antioxidant rich ingredient that helps to maintain normal healthy histamine levels for dogs with seasonal allergies. In addition, it protects from free radical damage and supports a strong healthy immune system.

Citrus Bioflavonoids are derived specifically from citrus fruits and are a terrific source of potent antioxidants.

How long have symptoms lasted?

Colds usually last 3 to 14 days. Allergies can hang around for months if you don't reduce your exposure to what's triggering them.

How are your eyes?

Colds rarely bother your eyes, but allergies love making your eyes itchy and watery.

Are you having aches & pains?

If you're experiencing aches and pains, you probably have a cold. Colds usually travel with general aches and pains. Allergies do not.

Do you have a fever?

If you have a fever, you have a cold. Allergies do not cause a fever.

Look for cues

Are you child's allergies worse in the spring or fall when outdoor allergies are rampant? Is your child always rubbing their nose? Noticing these kinds of things can help give you clues.

Does Mom or Dad have allergies?

If one parent has allergies, kids have a 50% chance of having allergies and up to a 75% chance if both parents suffer from allergies.

Children's Allergies

Explore this slideshow to learn ways to see if your child might be suffering from allergy symptoms. The more information you have, the better you and your child can communicate with your pediatrician!

Suffering for a few weeks

If you child has been suffering from what seems like a never-ending cold for more than two weeks, it may be allergies. Allergy symptoms in kids will linger while pollen or allergens are in the air.

Symptoms

Allergy symptoms in children usually present as a runny or itchy nose, sneezing, and sometimes congestion. Mucus from allergies is generally clean and very thin, like water.
