I have just set up a petition to lobby GlaxoSmithKline to produce Piriton syrup in 5 ml sachets...
I'm not aware what other countries use as a first course of action to counteract an allergen but in the UK and Ireland we use Piriton (Chlorphenamine Maleate) which is quite good at alleviating the symptoms and stopping anaphylaxis from occurring...this is only currently available in tablet form or in bulky 150ml bottles, which are cumbersome to those who have to carry this around everywhere with them.
I am a Mum to a six year old with multiple allergies. Have my own allergies, nickel, sun, insect bites.
Please sign my petition via the link below ...which I will be sending to GlaxoSmithKline when I have lots and lots and LOTS of signatures.. Thank you
