Pros: Only liquid my kids will take. Bubble gum flavor. I like it too.
Cons: Not recommended for children under six.
The Bottom Line: Benadryl Dye-Free Allergy is the only liquid form of OTCM that my children will take.

| mrsditmer's Full Review: Benadryl Allergy Liquid Dye Free 4oz |
Yes my kids have asked for more, before the next dosage was due. Now is that good or bad? I worried when it said not intended for children under 6, so there I was in Target, on the cell phone to my doctor. He said it was okay and gave me an itty bitty dose amount. No wonder they don't recommend it. Most parents would figure that is to small so let's give a little more. So in fairness to your child, I will not post the dose. You call your own doctor and get their advice.
Enough about that.
Benadryl Children's Dye-free Allergy does what it claims to do. Isn't that a first? Bubble gum flavor is a plus, and I had to taste-test it in front of my un-trusting children. After the Berry flavored Triaminic, I can't blame them.
This is a four ounce bottle and it cost me 4.50 at Target. My Target usually only carries 4 oz. on the brand names, and larger on their brand if they have it.
