I’m a wife and mom of two daughters. My daughters are 12 years apart so that keeps me quite busy and a little crazy at times. My life is a jumble of mixed up mishaps, but it’s always centered around my family.
Children’s Triaminic Thin Strips Review And Giveaway
January 3rd, 2010 by Connie RobertsChildren’s Triaminic Thin Strips relieves cough, runny and stuffy nose and itchy throat. They can be given to children aged 6 – 12 and come in grape flavor. Because they come in individual strips, there is no dosing issue. *Remember, when dispensing medication to children, always read and follow medicine labels exactly to ensure that the child receives the right dosage. The makers of children’s cough and cold medicines are voluntarily changing the product labeling to read “Do not use for children under 4“.
Triaminic also provides information for parents on illness. The Cold and Flu Tracker assists you to know where symptoms are highest as well as where the conversations on Social Media sites are happening. Learn when to keep you child home from school by visiting the Sick Day Guidelines. You can get some tips on making your child feel better also.
Savings Alert: Save $1.50 on any children’s Triaminic product by using this coupon -
Review: Although my daughter didn’t need to use Triaminic Thin Strips (thank goodness!) I have had experience with over the counter medications that melt when placed on the tongue. When my daughter is sick, it is more difficult for her to take any kind of medication. When we purchase something that melts quickly she will open her mouth and take it much easier than a liquid med. Not having to concern ourselves with measuring liquids in a cup makes our lives easier as parents. When our daughter is sick and clingy, it’s nice to open a box and pull out one strip to place on her tongue. Anything that is flavored goes down better too.
Giveaway: Triaminic is offering a giveaway pack which includes four boxes of thin strips (each valued at approximately $6)
The Rules:
- Contest starts now and ends January 10th at midnight EST.
- Open to adults 18 and over in the US.

My daughter usually tells me when she doesn’t feel good, but other than that she is usually lethargic compared to her bouncing around, bubbly self.

January 8th, 2010 at 4:45 pm
I have three toddlers and the first thing I notice when they are getting sick is that they are VERY quiet and less active. My three year old has severe asthma if she gets even a sniffle so we have to act quickly.

My chilodren are now old enough to tell me.
January 9th, 2010 at 10:57 pm
My son never slows down until he gets hit really hard, so the only way I know he is sick is if he seems stuffy or coughs. These thin strips are the only medication he will take, he gives me a really hard time about everything else.

I know my daughter is getting sick if she takes a nap during the day, she has not taken a nap since she was one- unless she was sick.
I know my son is sick if he is whining a lot.
Thanks!
