I had to go the Chemist the other week, when my Great Grand daughter was staying with us for a few days, she is 2 years old, She had a bad cough so the doctor had prescribed this Cough Mixture for her.
I always read the labels inside on any new medicine? having a heart condition i have to be careful so automatically read this one.
At the top it stated for Children aged 18 months to 5 years. Next line down it said, DO NOT DRIVE or partake of ALCOHOL, causes drowsiness.
She was totally gutted as she was heading out to a Booze party that night and had asked to borrow my car??
