Sinupret is the only thing that stopped my son’s sinus infection. He even had his tonsils out but that had stopped him from getting sinus infection until I used Sinupret. I decided to try it myself as I keep waking up with a runny nose and my tonsils have been enlarged enough to touch in the middle for about 20 year. After two day of using Sinupret for Adults the tonsils were shrunk by half

I found Sinupret at Walmart this past spring. My little girl (2.5 at the time) had been sick since she reached 6 months old (that’s when I went back to work and she began staying at a daycare). We went through three rounds of pneumonia (after she had already been given 3 pneumoccocal vaccinations) and had been on numerous antibiotics when I looked at her doctor and said, “I have to find something else because these antibiotics are about to quit working.” The doctor looked at me and simply said, “I know.” That’s it. Nothing more. No suggestions. So I left angry and upset because I didn’t know how to help my little girl and her weak immune system. That’s when i went to our local walmart and found Sinupret. I figured, what the heck – herbs have worked alot longer than any of these chemicals that man has made. It’s got to be better. And it was. It did not jolt her immune system back into gear because it had been beaten down so much, but it did help. I took her to an herbalist who agreed that the sinupret was doing its job and she gave me a recipe to make my own (a little bit more potent) since it is a little pricey and not quite as strong as her body needed at the time. It has been eight months since my daughter has been sick – she just contracted a cold from me unfortunately – and I am headed to walmart this evening to pick up some more sinupret. I love this stuff and am so glad the FDA felt gracious enough to let it into our country.

I’ve got to say, we tried Sinupret with my almost 3 year old daughter during spring-time allergy season… it was like she got “hit” by the pollen and suddenly had a lot of stuffy nose, runny nose, sneezing, some coughing, swollen sinuses, etc, and I can’t say I saw much difference at all using Sinupret, even after 3 days! We finally just went back to the homeopathic stuff to get much better results. Children’s Allergy Relief by NatraBio never fails to bring her good relief. You have to dose it a little more often than the Sinupret’s 3 x a day, but it gets great results, plus has a little echinacea in it to help out, and we’ve never had a notable side affect at all.

I’d still like to see an explanation of why Sinupret does what it does, and why it is supposedly effective.

I’ve read Dr. Sears’s endorsement for this product and he says something vague like that it “supports healthy nasal passages,” which doesn’t explain much.

I’m curious to know how this product has been tested and how it was developed. I’ve seen no information of this on the Sinupret website.

I mentioned bloodletting because that was accepted practice for many years, and one of Sinupret’s claims to efficacy was that it has been used for something like 70 years. Length of use isn’t a guarantee of results.

Walt,

The compounds created in a lab are inferior to what can be found in nature. Just look at synthetic vitamins…they may say Vitamin C or have minerals but yet they are not the same as what you get from an orange. Most of them don’t even get absorbed by the body yet they aren’t putting that on the vitamin bottle.

Your argument about blood letting is ridiculous. Did I say that standards from 19th century England are superior to ours???

The fact is that European safety standards are MUCH stricter than those in the US. They are also much more friendly to the natural remedies that the US outlaws because they will hurt pharma profits. Quite simply Europe has not fallen quite so far into the trap of money at all costs trap like the US has.

Your skepticism in natural remedies has been bought and paid for by pharma. You’ve been had.

Hmmm… Does anyone wonder what is do special about extracting, concentrating and combining chemicals “from nature” as opposed to ones created in a lab? I would love to see some explanation of why these folk remedies are effective. The fact that Europeans have used this for years doesn’t impress me much. That is the same as saying that blood letting is effective because it was accepted practice for hundreds of years. Put on your thinking caps, folks.

I have seen a huge difference in my son since using Sinupret this winter. He is 8 and has had cronic sinus problems since he was a baby. This is the first winter that he is not suffering, we even traveled to Europe for winter break, I got sick but he didn’t. We have gone through 2-1/2 bottles since fall season. I recommend it to all my friends with kids.

Sinupret is 8% alcohol per dose. It contains an unproven herbal concoction which is not recognized by German or US health authorities as effective in any way. Clinical trials conducted on Sinupret fail to meet the double blind, randomized gold standard (try a search on PubMed).

A good diet, rest and hygiene will do more than any dose of Sinupret. The removal of OTC medicines (which are FDA regulated) is completely unrelated to Sinupret (which is NOT FDA regulated).

I would not recommend this product at all for anyone.

We love Sambucol too, but have not really needed it very much! I love how herbs are part of the pharmaceutical repetoire in Europe. The FDA is so behind the times when it comes to natural products. Thanks for the info!

I’ve seen commercials for this product and was curious about how it worked. Now that you have researched the product and feel good enough to recommend it, I would definitely like to try it.

I would love to try this. I have yet to give my 3 year old any medications and would like an all natural choice when I want to.

So far my 15 month old hasn’t needed anything, but with winter coming I am definitely trying to figure out what to have on hand in case he comes down with a bad cold. Great to know that these are products to try.

I would love to try this product! I have an 18 month old, so I am fearful of trying it just yet… since it is not recommended on children under age 2. He constantly has a cold, so this will be great!!

I would very much like to try this as I only use natural remedies for my family. My baby is currently going through a cold at this very moment that keeps coming back. This just might do the trick.
