does anyone have a home cure or a medicine that actually works for cough and aches and super runny noses on ten month olds? i have been using tylenol very little and ceron dm is a decongestant like 90 dollars a bottle and it still does not work. no fevers i have twins so the decongestant is costly i have four bottles and have gone through two already. (they r small bottles) please help they are miserable and it is so sad

try triamedic. ask the pharmist how much to give your child but it does work. and they have med. just for what the child has and not everything they don't have. use baby vicks vapor rub on there chest when they go to sleep. leave the shower on really hot and sit with them in the bathroom ( don't put them in the water this is just for the steam) them after about ten min use the booger sucker on there noses. the steam helps to make it easier for the child. give them a warm bath and use lotin and rub there backs behind there rib cages. put them in there most cuddly pj's and lay them on there backs to sleep. then they make a vicks vapor plug for there room and it works great to help them sleep. lots of love an attention is what they need the most. mommy's love is the best med. good luck and hope they get well soon.

You really need to stop using the ceron dm. The American Academy of Pediatrics issued a statement that no child under the age of 3 years should be given any cough syrup unless directed by a dr because of a string of deaths related to cough syrups. Take the babies to the doctor!
