I complete jinxed myself last month when I told a few friends that my kids have not been sick recently, they’ve been sick twice since and once was during a road trip during Thanksgiving weekend to visit my parents, not fun.With Jonathan’s asthma, a simple cold can affect his breathing and will last much longer, usually at least two weeks where it will only affect Trevor for 2-3 days so it’s important for us to act fast and catch the cold as soon as it starts to prevent the prolonged sickness. While they’re usually okay taking prescribed medication, Jonathan is not a fan of the cough medicine I bought and often gives me a struggle, he’s familiar with the bottle and knows what is coming as soon as I take it out of the medicine cabinet.
In a new national survey of U.S. parents of school-aged children, ages 4-13, 40% say that they find it isn’t always easy to give their child(ren) over-the-counter liquid cough and cold medicine.
One-third of those parents, like myself, believe that it is the taste of the medicine that affects how easy it is to get their children to take it. There are a few medicines that they will take no problem, but others they complain about the taste and gag. Dr. Cocoa™ for Children offers a new option, chocolate flavored cough and cold medicine for children.
Dr. Cocoa™ for Children is made with a combination of ingredients including 10% real cocoa for a real chocolate taste, and all of their products are dye-free, gluten-free and alcohol-free. With both of the kids sick over Thanksgiving, we put the new Dr. Cocoa™ for Children line to the test. There’s nothing I hate more than seeing my child sick, and it’s even worse when I have to force them to take medicine that they refuse and makes them gag. Jonathan knows he dislikes cough medicine and at times gets himself so worked up he ends up throwing up. After explaining to him that it was a different cold & cough medicine he was reluctant to give it a try until I told him that is is made with cocoa. After seeing how it looked like chocolate, he drank it, and after making a little face he said that it didn’t taste too bad. He’s taken the Nighttime Cough + Cold Relief and Daytime Cough + Cold Relief a few times since with no issues, it’s nice not having to struggle to have him take cough medicine.
