    I’m thoughtful. As Confucius says, ‘they who go to bed with itchy bum, wake up with smelly finger’.

    Plus, it was 50% off.

    My pharmacist told me that children’s cough medicines aren’t available here anymore, something about them being proved ineffective in under 12s? Please correct me if I’m wrong, it’s just that when I saw this article I thought, “Well that doesn’t pertain to children in Ireland”. I’d like to know for sure because my mother (who is from the UK) suggested that I buy this Tixilix stuff for my daughter.

    No Laura you are right. Pharmacies here are not allowed to sell cough bottle to kids under 6 ( not 12) as they are not proven to work and have been proven to potentially have dangerous side effects. If these products are sold here they must have no active ingredients so are not cough bottles but not sure if you can even get them here.

    That’s not true, you can get cough medicines for children here suitable from 2 years and upwards, the age recommendation on certain medications was changed from 2 to 6 years, not all of them.

    There’s a throat syrup you can get for babies and children called Pharmony, but it’s just natural ingredients.

    Completely irrelevant article: not one of those Tixylix products is currently available in Ireland!

    For those debating what can and cannot be used by kids of what age, follow the link to the other story at the bottom of the article.
