My son has always had severe allergies. He has had symptoms including enlarged tonsils and adenoids, sleep apnea, congestion, and daily coughing. Recently, his eardrum burst. He was prescribed Vazobid for his congestion and has not coughed one time since he has been taking the medication. It is amazing considering he has coughed daily his entire life. It has definitely helped him.

Both of my children are taking this medicine, and both of them have experience several of the "rare" side effects. Scary!

My 6 and 2-year-old both take this medicine for allergies. It hasn't been as good as Zyrtec was, but that quit working (ask about "tacky" data with Zyrtec). Oldest son doesn't have runny nose as often with Vazobid, but is more stuffy. It has not stopped the eye allergy problems. The oldest has had severe allergies since birth, so not much has worked. For the younger son, allergies are not as severe and Vazobid has worked well.

My son, who is almost 6, was given this for constant coughing. The doc said it was allergies and gave him this med. The cough was so bad that it was keeping him awake as well as mom and dad awake, at night. I have to say, the cough has dimished but not completely gone away. At least he can sleep without having a coughing fit lasting for an hour.

The only medicine that relieved the pressure in my ears. In minutes I was able to hear normally.
