There have indeed been some children hurt and even killed by overdosing of so called "infant" over the counter cold products. However, in general these products are safe and effective when given appropriately, and the children are monitored. There are several things parents need to know before giving their children these medicines, which in 99% of kids are perfectly safe. While these products will NOT cure the cold or flu your infant has, they can create some relief so that the baby and you can both get a good night's sleep.
