NEW UPDATE:

As if things couldn’t get much worse for cough medicine companies, there is now speculation that the ban on cough meds could get more severe.  There is now talk in the UK  about enforcing the ban that is now currently at 4 years of age and younger to 12 years of age and younger. This comes to light as more and more cough syrups are proving to be useless and actually harmful.

Just two days ago, CBS released this piece on the harmful effects of cough syrups.

ZarBee’s sees this as a perfect opportunity to let mothers and parents know that our ZarBee’s Cough Syrup is completely safe and effective at calming and soothing sore throats.  We have had mothers across the country try and test our product with great results. For more information go to www.zarbees.com

With the popularity of ZarBee’s gaining, we have had several parents contact us asking whether or not honey should be given to children.  This is a great question and we have just the answer for those parents looking for a safer, more effective alternative to the usual cough meds out there.

From the FDA website (check out this site for tips on keeping your children safe and healthy):

“Do not feed a baby honey or syrup — at least for the first 12 months. Honey and syrups can contain spores of Clostridium botulinum. The immune systems of adults and older children can prevent the spores from growing once ingested. However, in an infant, these spores can grow and cause infant botulism.”

Honey shouldn’t be given to infants 12 months and younger due to the risk of botulism.  Products, such as ZarBee’s that contain dark honeys, are safe and effective for those that fall into the proper age group of 12 months and older. We hope this answers your questions about the safety of using honey products.

At ZarBee’s our main goal is to ease the pain and frustration for both children and parents that comes with a cough, sore throat or a minor throat irritation.  We also make it a priority to educate and promote sound parenting tips when possible.  Thanks again and visit ZarBee’s for more information on ZarBee’s Cough Syrup, it will change the way you think about cough syrup!

Recently ZarBee’s received the following testimonial from a pediatrician who has been using ZarBee’s Cough Syrup for her patients.  Dr. Luce stumbled upon some ZarBee’s Samples and was intrigued by the new children’s cough syrup that claimed to be natural, safe and effective.

“As frustrated providers seeing common colds in children under age 4 with nothing to recommend… we now have an evidence based product [ZarBee's] to recommend to parents that helps alleviate symptoms. Feedback from parents is excellent and our practice gets many phone calls asking where they can obtain Zarbee’s.  We haven’t found much evidence to support OTC cold remedy use in older children either, so we are recommending Zarbee’s for them as well.  Thanks for bringing this product to the market!”

Dr. Mari Luce, Pediatric Care of Ogden
