This study seeks to identify ways to help parents safely use cough/cold medications with their children. The study focuses on 3 key tasks that have been found to be difficult for parents: 1) decision-making about whether medicines should be given based on a child's age, 2) use of active ingredient information to determine which medications are safe to give together, and 3) medication dosing.
