Iv never seen this happen. its hard not to laugh, but im kind of upset that the doc. didnt say anything about it. Wont give again. Published: July 28, 2008 ::

My 18 mth old was prescribed this medication for the Croup. He took it at 5:30 pm & by 11:00 pm he was writhing ariund on the floor screaming & hitting us, which is VERY uncommon for him. My Dr. did not tell us that this could happen or else I never would have given it to him. My husband brought him to the ER at 11:45 pm thinking our son was hallucinating while I was at home worried sick. NOT WORTH IT!!! Use a humidifier & the steam from the shower!

Our 4 year old still had a bad double ear infection after seven days on meds. Our allergist recommended it, but said she would be "wild". She was upside down and hanging from everything for 6 days. She even put crackers up her nose! We trusted our doctors judgement and did the best we could with the crazy behavior. Published: September 29, 2008 ::

This drug helped my son recover from pneumonia quickly (4 day dose) but he was a totally different child while taking it. Very moody, agitated, and irritable. The drug was good but I will probably think twice next time before giving it to my children. Published: February 15, 2008 ::

My son had asthma and coughs non-stop when he gets in cold weather, when exercising or when he has a cold. This medication helps stop his cough almost immediately and enables him to sleep. Haven't noticed much change in personality, but his heart rate does increase. Published: November 28, 2008 ::
