Although, we have had a hot start to the fall season, we know that cooler weather is around the corner. With it, cold season will begin and you need to be prepared.
An apple a day keeps the doctor away! This past week, we went apple picking to begin the season of fall activities. I love starting the fall season with apples, pears and pumpkins.

As we say goodbye to summer days, and fall and cold season begin, we understand how important it is to have essentials on hand to get your kids back to learning and with their friends in school.
The Pfizer Pediatric team is here to make sure that back to school season goes as smoothly as possible with Children’s Advil®, Children’s Robitussin®, and Children’s Dimetapp® when sick gets real.
I always have the following products in my house because you never know when cold and fever germs will strike.
When sick gets real, the pediatric brands of Pfizer Consumer Healthcare are there with three solutions – Children’s Advil®, Children’s Robitussin® and Children’s Dimetapp® – to tackle the ickiest of symptoms.
Ease those aches and pains, while reducing a child’s fever fast with Children’s Advil®*, a great solution for kids as young as 2 and up to 11. Children’s Advil® comes in several great-tasting flavors, including: Sugar-free Dye-free Berry, Bubble Gum, Grape, Blue Raspberry, Fruit and Dye-Free White Grape flavors. There’s also Infants’ Advil® White Grape, which provides unsurpassed fever relief (among OTC pain relievers) with a syringe for easy dosing for children 6-23 months.
For your child’s cough, trust Children’s Robitussin® Extended-Release 12 Hour Cough Relief to control and relieve symptoms all-day or all- night. Available in grape or orange flavor, for children ages 4 and up. Please note, certain Children’s Robitussin® products are only suitable for children ages 6 and up.
Children’s Dimetapp® Multi-Symptom Cold Relief Dye-Free eases your child’s stuffy and runny nose, while quieting a bothersome cough. All in a great-tasting grape flavor that’s dye-free, for children ages 6 and up.
**It is important to remember to always read and keep the cartons for complete warnings and dosing information on Pfizer Pediatric products and to use as directed.
