Clarityn, a brand trusted by mums for #1 allergy brand[1], has launched its Grape Syrup that’s a lifesaver and a must-have at home. Only Clarityn Grape Syrup for kids provides 24-hour allergy relief with just one dose a day. Its kids-approved great taste (based on a taste test done by a group of children between six to 12 years old) in grape flavour is a godsend for mums when administering the formula. What’s more, the syrup is sugar-free with no dyes, alcohol, as well as parabens, making it a safer option for kids. Each teaspoon contains 5mg of loratadine, an antihistamine that’s used to treat the symptoms of allergies like sneezing, watery eyes, and runny nose.
Clarityn has also launched ClariCare, a natural, safe, and effective solution to complement your allergy regimen in managing allergy symptoms. This clinically proven, preservative-free formula nasal hygiene spray that comes in 100ml for adults and 20ml for babies is safe for daily use and also while pregnant or breastfeeding. ClariCare’s natural sea water formula sourced from the Bay of Saint-Malo, France helps to restore healthy nasal breathing in both adults and babies.
If your child is constantly battling episodes of runny nose, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, he/she might be experiencing symptoms of allergic rhinitis, a chronic medical condition that’s prevalent among children in Singapore. A review article in the Singapore Medical Journal[2] states that local population-based studies have reported a prevalence of allergic rhinitis in 44% of Singaporean school children.
Allergic rhinitis is not caused by a viral infection and cannot be resolved in a matter of days. It’s the result of an allergy when you breathe in something from your environment, indoors or outdoors, that you are allergic to. Symptoms will persist for as long as the allergen is present. Allergens include house dust mites, plant pollen, or haze that cause the mucous lining in the nose to be inflamed. These would lead to symptoms such as sneezing and a runny nose.
Treatment for allergic rhinitis is long-term as symptoms recur as a result of the presence of allergens. Doctors will prescribe oral antihistamines for mild cases and in more severe cases, nasal steroid sprays can administered. The treatment process also includes identifying and avoiding allergens altogether.[3]
For kids with allergic rhinitis, Clarityn Grape Syrup provides much-needed comfort and for mums seeking a natural remedy for their babies, ClariCare is a safe alternative. Clarityn Grape Syrup’s non-drowsy formula is also perfect for kids to be up and about and stay active throughout the day! ClariCare is also a great complement to any allergy regimen for the whole family.
