Wondering what to pack for your summer travels?
Here are my top ten suggestions.
How to take these remedies? A dose is always two pellets – despite the label on the container!
Take two and wait, observe and you will know if you need to repeat.
- If things settle down, the crying or discomfort stops then two is enough.
- If it reduces the intensity but isn’t gone, then repeat the remedy.
- If it does nothing then you have the wrong remedy.
