It’s so hard to believe that our kids are back in school. I don’t know about you, but it was somewhat bittersweet for me. We had a great summer and I enjoyed having the kids at home with us. Now that they’re back in school, life is pretty busy again. Complete with homework, science projects, school activities and more, the days seem to go by really fast! While back to school can mean new shoes, clothes, backpacks, as well as what every parent dreads…new germs. Yuck! One illness common in kids that’s caused by bacteria is strep throat. If your child shows signs and symptoms of strep throat, you may want to schedule him/her for a rapid pediatric strep exam.

It’s amazing how the sickies tend to spread so quickly at this time of year! As the summer days slowly fade, and fall and cold season begin, it is super important to have essentials on hand to get our kids back on track for school learning and spending time with their friends in school. The Pfizer Pediatric team wants to make that the back to school season goes as smoothly as possible with Children’s Advil®, Children’s Robitussin®, and Children’s Dimetapp® when sick gets real.

    I keep chicken noodle soup, jello, juice, and Advil at home home. That way when someone gets sick I am not scrambling to make a run to the store.

    I try to keep the medicine cabinet somewhat stocked year round. But when “sick gets real” i normally double check for tissue (travel packs and boxes for home / school / car) and advil (for kids and mama!)

    disinfectant spray and soft tissues. Travel hand sanitizer is great also so there’s always a way to help eliminate germs wherever I am.

    We keep a good supply of tissues and basic cold/fever meds on hand, but mainly depend on nutrition, sleep and plenty of hand washing.

    I always have Dimetapp dye free cold medicine on hand because no one feels like running to the store with a sick kid! I’m very grateful that they make it in dye free form.

    We tend to stock up on tissues and we let Carter pick the medicine so that he will take it when he needs it. Some of the flavors he just can’t stand, and those flavors change!

    I stock up on cold medicines since kids bring so many germs with them to school that mine will certainly catch some of them.
