Mucinex for toddler ?

Question

anyone ever used the mucinex for a sick toddler ? my son is 3 and won’t stop coughing

Answer

You should consult your pediatrician before giving a toddler any medicine Certain otc medications (most) are not recommended for any kids under 6 years old

Answer

I don't think a 3 year old can have that. Most OTC cold medicine isn't recommended for children under 6. You might want to ask your pediatrician or pharmacist what you can offer if he's really uncomfortable. There should be some homeopathic options he can take as well.

Answer

You could try vicks vaporub. Also a humidifier might help.

Answer

Mucinex is not made for a 3 year old. Try hylands or a cough med made for his age. If that fails, see your pediatrician.

Answer

There is a children’s version but unsure of the age requirements as I’ve not used it. Always best to discuss with your pediatrician though
