It’s that time of the year where the flu and cold take over. I try to use home remedies before trying on OTC medicine. I even call my mom for her home remedies that she used to do when we were sick as a child with a cold or fever. My mom would rub vapor-rub on our feet then covered them with socks and left overnight to fight the fever or cold. She would cook a pot of chicken soup, lemon with honey tea and if that didn’t work she then had to rely on OTC medicine or would take us to the doctor for Penicillin. It would usually went away within a few days with just home remedies and bed rest.
When Aries is sick, I try everything my mom would do but we still have OTC medicine like Little Remedies in our medicine cabinet for emergencies.
If your children get sick, my recommendation as a mom is too give them liquids, cover them, warm baths and lots of hugs. There is not really much options to prevent a cold or flu but, but to take eat healthy, and like your mom would say “cover yourself when going out”. Try your mom’s home remedies first then move to OTC medicine. Little Remedies is a great choice since they use “Less is More” approach in their products, using as few ingredients as possible and keeping them free of alcohol, artificial dyes, or artificial colors.

My little Aries hasn’t gotten really sick but she did had an small cold and fever. It was all over the place with normal to high temperatures and sleepless night but Aries got better after a whole day of much care that included warm baths, fever patches, little remedies medicine, baby vapor rub, soups & liquids.
Little Remedies carry many OTC medicine that could help temporarily relieve the cold, flu, sore throat and more. Honey Elixir is one OTC medicine that caught me eye because it temporarily helps reduce the temperature and sore throat that even adults can use. Little Remedies’ Acetaminophen products are the best choice when picking OTC medicine for your little ones. The Acetaminophen of Little Remedies® For Fevers™ Infant Fever/Pain Reliever are the perfect choice to help your children temporarily reduce fever and minor aches and pains due to common cold, flu, headache, sore throat and toothache. All little remedies products have no artificial flavors or colors; no alcohol, saccharin or gluten and are crated by a pharmacist and father, who was tired of searching for a product to give his children that was effective and made with ingredients he could feel good about.
I have tried Little Remedies medicine since my little Aries was a baby and I trust the brand. I have used the Little Remedies Gas Relief, Cold/Flu & Little Noses and what I love is that is a more natural medicine that is alcohol & gluten free.

Disclosure: “I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Little Remedies. I received product samples as well as a promotional item as a thank-you for participating.
