April Horton
This delicious tasting elderberry syrup is a must have for the upcoming cold and flu season. Taken at the onset of a cold or flu it can help decrease the duration of your child's illness. This syrup is also great tasting so you won't have trouble getting your little one's to take their medicine! It is an all natural herbal remedy that contains ingredients effective in treating most everyday illnesses such as coughs, fever, colds, bronchitis, influenza and more.

This herbal children's remedy is great for chest congestion and relieving coughs of the common cold. It will also provide gentle pain relief and can also work as an expectorant so it is multi functional! It's ingredients are also immune boosting so it can help reduce the amount of time your child is sick.

The active herbal ingredients in this herbal formula and their properties are;

Black Elderberries- black elderberries have been used for decades in treating the common everyday cold and flu. IT contains biofalvanoids which helps kill off the flu and other bugs. It also contains antioxidants and is immune boosting.

Echinacea- Echinacea is an immune stimulating herb. It will help your body fight off viral and bacterial infections.

This remedy is a great choice for herbal relief during your child's illness. It contains no artificial additives or dyes and has no side effects. It is also strong effective for adults to use as well! It is also alcohol free. You will feel confident when using this remedy when your child is sick. It is very effective in making your little one's feel better fast.

I like to keep a bottle of this on hand during the winter months because you never know when illness will strike!

A 4 oz bottle of Eldertussin should run around $8 and you can find it at most health food stores or co-op's. You can also order it online.

My kid's have really liked this medicine the couple of times I have had to use it. I feel a lot better using herbal remedies rather than over the counter medicines that will make them groggy. I also am assured they will work!

The dosage suggests it be used 3-4 times daily and there is a weight chart to figure out dosage amounts. This medicine is not recommended for use by pregnant women or children under 1 year of age.

I like all the Herbs for Kid's supplements and it is a brand that parent's can trust. On a scale of 1-10 this remedy get's a 10 from me. Especially the fact that it is all natural and great tasting. It's so easy to get the kid's to take their medicine with this delicious herbal syrup! It is very soothing for colds and helps relieve flu symptoms effectively.

We all know how awful it is to have sick kids and this remedy will help them feel better fast.

This would make a great gift with some other Herbs for Kid's products for new parents.
