Little Allergies

OK... Update on my allergies. They are still knocking me out. It has been a week of this congestion and yucky feeling. I started taking Zyrtec-D, and that has helped some. I have been trying not to go outside as much, and I have an air purifier going in whichever room I am in... Anyway, I saw this product. Have any of you tried it? I was wondering if it is worth buying for the kids. I have tried other "Little Remedies" products, and they have been wonderful. http://www.littleremedies.com/ Also, does anyone know of the adult equivalent?

I just saw an ad for the adult version-- I think it's made by Oragel but not sure!

I wouldn't buy it for the kids unless they're showing signs of allergies. Actually, I wouldn't buy it at all; I'm betting the Oragel version is cheaper and the exact same thing. I don't buy kiddie versions of things like that (and saline spray); all you're paying more for is the brand and the packaging.

Okay, looked it up and apparently it's a different brand. It's called DermaSeal.

I'd only buy it for kids, like I said, if they have allergies. There's no point otherwise. And it's probably worth trying for yourself. But I don't know whether it's FDA approved or not... I'd read the label before deciding.
