    PediaCare Acetaminophen Infant & Childrens Liquid Review

    By 45 Comments

    ABOUT:

    PediaCare now offers age-appropriate dosing devices.  Infant products will now contain a special dosing syringe and flow restrictors on the bottles; children’s products, for ages 2 to 11 years, will have the bottles with flow restrictors, and continue to contain dosing cups. Both infant and children’s formulations will continue to have weight-based instructions on the package, as well.

    While the new single-concentration for PediaCare infants’ and children’s acetaminophen products are among the first to hit store shelves, parents should know that there will be a “transition period” during which the existing infant products and the new acetaminophen infant PediaCare products may be on store shelves simultaneously. The new infants’ formula is less concentrated and the dose is therefore more than in the older infant formulation. And while reading and following package directions is always recommended to obtain accurate dosing instructions, it will be important, while the two concentrations are available, to select the dose that is proper for the specific product version that is being given. Parents and caregivers should ask a healthcare professional if they have any questions.

    Dr. Jim Sears Discusses the Changes to Single-Concentration Acetaminophen Brands with New Dosing Features

    MY THOUGHTS:

    While I hate the thought of my babies being sick, I am glad there is PediaCare.  This week all three of my kids have been sick with a cough and slight fever.  It has been great to be able to give all three kids PediaCare so they get their rest and get better faster.  My kids are 3,5, and 6 months and it is great of PediaCare to make two versions for each age groups.  The Cherry flavor was a hit with the kids and the syringe/cup made it easy to dispense medicine to them.

    BUY IT:  PediaCare can be found at your local mass-retailer for $7.59 for a 4-ounce bottle or $6.99 for a 2-ounce bottle.   To learn more about the new acetaminophen dosing system visit pediacare.com.

    WIN IT:  (1) US winner will receive both the PediaCare Infant and Children’s Liquid Acetaminophen.

      I let my daughter rest all day, make sure she gets lots of water, and keep a bucket by her bed!

      I usually used Triaminic Night Time meds since it seems to be the only one that works for my child. That and snuggles always works=)

      Wow…there are so many things that I do!

      ~First, I use Vicks on their chest and also on the bottoms of their feet to help soothe coughing.

      ~Then I use Saline mist in their noses and suction them if it is needed (they HATE that but it helps soo much!).

      ~Next, I LOVE my vaporizer and set that up in their room at night.

      ~Elevating their mattress also helps them to breathe better.

      ~Snuggle, cuddle and LOADS of hugs and rocking in the glider!

      When my son is sick I sit with him and hold him with lots of love to try to comfort him along with any meds I may need to help him.

      I have 4 children and love that I can have a go to medicine to help all of them, instead of getting looks when I put 2 or 3 different medicines on the counter. Great Review!
