I just in my experience disagree with what they say the benefit is ... I see it as Way more than a half day. That's all. I'll give it to mine every time until the FDA pulls it.

No I agree it can be good for older folks. I took it when I was a freshman at LSU, got flu, and I recall it helped me after 3 days of feeling like death.

From want you said your kid was/is the same age I was when I took it as a freshman at LSU. But I took it in second grade (I guess I was actually closer to 7-8) and had severe projectile vomiting, diarrhea, and bad hallucinations that I still remember to this day. After my parents stopped dosage I was back to "normal" sick after 10-12 hours.

I wish they would do more research/studies on it's effect specific to infants through elementary age children. But that won't happen, pharma lobby in too deep.
