Same here. Those cold rememdies do address symptoms, no doubt. Nyquil has been a staple in my house. When my kids were young, Children’s Tylenol was a godsend. Both of these help your body do what it needs to do to get over a cold or flu: Sleep. Big time. But, now with new research on kids and cold remedies, I wish there had been another alternative. It sounds like young children–2 and under–simply should not take cold remedies, and those older than that shouldn’t take anything for more than a couple days.
