Re: Help-Piriton for intolerances in Autism?

[Guest guest]

This comes as injection, tablets, and syrup. It appears to be UK

only. Here is a commercial page containing info for the tablets.

The tablets contain lactose, so if the child has milk

allergy/intolerance, that may be the cause. They also contain a

yellow color, which can also set off some children. And some children

just go wild with antihistamines in general.

Here is another page of info I found, you can look here also. Piriton

appears to be used in UK for anaphylactic reactions.
