Hyland's Kids Cough & Mucus Combo Pack, 8 fl oz total

Hyland's Kids Cough & Mucus Combo Pack pairs two grape-flavored homeopathic syrups: one 4 fl oz daytime bottle and one 4 fl oz nighttime bottle. The package is labeled for ages 2–12 and states no alcohol, sugar, parabens or dyes. The 8 fl oz total is the combined volume, not the size of each bottle.

Daytime and nighttime formulas compared

Hyland's markets both formulas for cough, mucus, congestion and runny nose. The nighttime version adds a sleeplessness indication and two additional homeopathic preparations. Its nighttime label is not a guarantee of sleep or proof of a sedating effect. This combo is distinct from the brand's Kids Cold & Cough and organic All-in-One products.

Claims based on traditional homeopathic practice, not accepted medical evidence. Not FDA evaluated.

Age-specific measured directions

The manufacturer's directions for these formulas specify 5 mL every 4 hours, up to 6 times per day, for children ages 2 to under 6 years; and 10 mL every 4 hours, up to 6 times per day, for children ages 6 to under 12 years. Follow each supplied bottle for complete directions, including guidance at age 12 and above. Do not extend these children's directions to those under 2 years.

Measure in mL according to the label. These directions are not instructions to give both formulas together or add their daily limits. The two-bottle pack does not establish a fixed number of days or nights of use.

Cough and sore-throat precautions

Consult a doctor promptly for a severe sore throat, one lasting more than 2 days, or one accompanied or followed by fever, headache, rash, nausea or vomiting. Ask a doctor before use for a persistent or chronic cough, including one associated with asthma, chronic bronchitis or emphysema, or a cough accompanied by excessive phlegm.

Stop use and ask a doctor if symptoms persist for more than 7 days or worsen; if inflammation, fever or infection is present or develops; or if a cough recurs or is accompanied by fever, rash or persistent headache. Read all warnings on both supplied bottles.
