    No Cold Medicine for Kids

    Pediatricians for years have been arguing with drug companies about cold medicine for kids.  Now, there is apparently some type of understanding between the two groups, as drug companies began informing potential users of their products that children under the age of four should not use cold remedies.  There will also be a warning issued on the medecine itself that antihistamines should not be used on children to make them sleepy.  Lilly, O'Toole & Brown deals with product liability issues almost on a daily basis, usually against big companies like the drug companies.  It is a nice change of pace to see the drug companies working with doctors to determine if certain medicines are right for certain groups of people.  Hopefully, this is a sign of better warnings about possible adverse effects from medication rather than hiding those effects until the government and injured persons start investigating.
