As a mother of 3 girls, we have had to deal with seasonal allergy issues with each child. Right now my youngest 2 are dealing with all the irritations that come with spring. Personally, this has been one of the worst seasons for me, so I can only imagine how much they are suffering.they are suffering just as much. Recently, I had the opportunity to try Children's Claritin through a BzzAgent campaign in a pill form. In the past have always used liquid allergy meds. They all have needed meds at younger ages, so its been easier to dispense.

The things that I liked about the Children's Claritin is that it was easy to dispense. You pop the pill out of the packaging, kid chews and you move on. Also, I liked not having to rinse the dispensing cup out afterwards. One day I forgot to give my kids their meds, so I just simple grabbed a pill and was able to hand it to them in the car.

The few things I didn't like about the Children's Claritin is that I could not give half doses easily. My kids don't always need a full dose of medicine, so I had to cut the pill in half. The other downside is the cost compared to liquid. I usually always have 2 kids on allergy meds at once. The liquid gives you more bang for your dollar compared to the pill form. We went through the box pretty quickly compared to the amount of time it takes us to go through a bottle. Overall, I'm very glad I got the chance to try the pill form. It's something I've been wanting to do, just never stopped to buy. I defintely see it as something we'll use in the future. When my girls are over taking liquid or when we travel and I don't want to drag a bottle.
