Genexa Kids’ Allergy, 4 fl oz

Genexa Kids’ Allergy is a diphenhydramine HCl antihistamine liquid for temporary relief of symptoms due to hay fever and other upper respiratory allergies. This bottle contains 4 fl oz (118 mL).

Allergy symptoms and active ingredient

The manufacturer lists runny nose, sneezing, itching of the nose or throat, and itchy, watery eyes among this medicine's uses. Diphenhydramine HCl is the antihistamine active ingredient. This is a conventional allergy medicine, not a homeopathic remedy or dietary supplement.

Agave-flavored liquid formula

Genexa describes the liquid as flavored with organic agave and lists organic agave syrup, natural citrus extract and purified water alongside the active ingredient. Check the supplied Drug Facts for the exact strength and complete current ingredient information, especially when comparing it with other children's medicines.

Age restrictions and measuring directions

Shake well before each use. Measure only with the enclosed dose cup, not another dosing device or a household spoon. Follow the supplied package's age-specific dose and dosing interval, or your doctor's instructions; do not exceed 6 doses in any 24-hour period.

For children ages 2 to under 6, do not use unless directed by a doctor. Do not use in children under 2 years. Read the complete Drug Facts before giving a dose, including the directions for children ages 6 to under 12.

Drowsiness and choosing the right medicine

Diphenhydramine can cause drowsiness. Do not give allergy medicine simply to make a child sleepy. Ask a doctor or pharmacist about suitability and other medicines your child takes, and follow all package warnings. Keep out of reach of children.
