Not sure if I should give this to my little one, to avoid altitude sickness...

As a Homeopath I have found that Gingko Biloba is the most effective in people who are above 40 years of age I have found no benefits for children. For altitude sickness prevention the Homeopathic remedy BELLADONNA works the best in 200 potency. No side effects or complications.
Take Care and God Bless You !

It is not recommend in children under 12 yrs old. There are prescription medications for altitude sickness, such as acetazolamide. I wouldn't take the risk.

Yes, but they don't need a dose as big as an adult's because they generally weigh less. Also.... you'll find most kids don't actually need to take ginko biloba, but it won't hurt them.
