One of the only meds I don’t have to fight my kids to take. The flavor isn’t super strong like some makes it easier.

I was recommended this and laughed because this is for children. When you have a cough from a bug or allergy, maybe itchy throat, irritated throat this is a miracle worker! You won’t be coughing as much as before. Bonus, it taste great! It doesn’t taste like medicine
Best for kids! Calms that cough!

This does the job for sick kids. I don't like that there are artificial colors added to it... It's about time companies offer dye-free options.

This is the brand recommended by pediatricians. I had this and Mucinex on hand per emergency situation guidelines. My daughter contracted COVID despite being fully vaccinated. The Mucinex may have caused insomnia. The Dimetapp gave my daughter relief from coughing and congestion with no adverse affects. She does not complain about the taste. Great stuff.

This is the only medication that helps my children when they wake up with allergy symptoms. For some reason I have had a hard time finding it lately so when I do find it I try and stock up because like I said it’s the only medicine that helps my boys.

Seemed to help my kids’ coughs. Way bettter than Delsym or the prescribed Bromfed that doctors give for coughs. Plus the Dimetap is more palatable which doesn’t make it a hassle to try and give to my kids.
It Works!

I usually buy a more expensive cough/cold syrup for my little one but he hates the taste. So, I decided to try this one and he actually likes the taste & helped with all his cough/cold symptoms. Makes it easier for him to use as needed to feel better. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try, especially for picky little ones.
Definitely Helps

Given in the right dosage and time frames this always helps my 10yo son when he’s coming down with cold symptoms.
