DD has had this side effect twice after having Piriton (chlorphenamine maleate).
She's 2, so big enough to tell us what is wrong. We took her to GP, thinking they had to record side effects, and hoping she'd prescribe an alternative but she talked right over me, checked DDs ears and prescribed antibiotics for an ear infection!
Has anyone experienced this problem with Piriton or Allerief or know if there's an alternative medication for this age?
GPs seem pretty dismissive of the issue of allergies if it's not immediate rashy type, and even once referred, the allergy doctor at hospital was the same. Pin prick testing was negative within the time but dairy test was red by the time we got to the car ten mins later.
