Oral antihistamine may cause aggression or hallucinations in young kids: TGA
Phenergan maker Sanofi asked the TGA about updating the product information following a safety review.
Children younger than six should not use the S3 oral antihistamine promethazine due to risks of psychiatric or CNS adverse events, the TGA says.
Promethazine is indicated for allergies, hay fever and nausea, or as a short-term sedative.
