Corn allergy and liquid remedies? Input please, for 1 year old.
I have a one-year-old daughter who has a corn allergy (she reacts with eczema and discomfort).Her Naturopath prescribed Pulsatilla for her and I've found the liquid one online. Is the alcohol in them safe for a corn allergic person (she does NOT have a life threatening allergy!!!).
Previously I'd given her Sulphur tablets but she reacted with great discomfort so I suspect the sucrose is derived from corn.
Additionally, how would I best give her the liquid remedy?
FYI, she's being treated with the Pulsatilla because she awakes often during the night with restlessness and agitation.
Thanks for any thoughts.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
what were exact discomfort symptoms experienced after sulphur (sucrose tablets)?
it may be she respond to sulphur--not sucrose...
allergy /eczema---awakes often are to be considered as part of daughter's state ..so as proper treament can be used...

She woke constantly the three nights she was given the Sulphur. She was tremendously agitated and she was thrashing around and moaning and groaning in her sleep. Her limbs were twitchy.
I assumed it was the sucrose because it was very reminiscent of how she acted when she was being exposed to corn.

not sucrose --but response to sulphur---
and wouldnt trust natraul-o-path--you mention--if same whom prescribe sulphur---
this leaves pulsatilla as a questionable prescription---you also need know that at times aggravtions occur---as long as not a new symptom-and not a severe aggravtion of old sympto---then allow to respond as such----your mothering instinct want no aggravtion for child--and will interrupt anygood by misinterpretation--you want good for child--then relax---awaking pften not as much concern as suppressing skin condition with ointment meds and such...

I'm sorry, I didn't state it well.
The sulpur remedy was weeks and weeks ago. That was for her eczema. I didn't see much aggravation or improvement in her eczema after the sulphur was used. She took 2 tablets nightly for three nights.
The agitation that the Pulsatilla is being prescribed for is something different. She wakes often (not related to the Sulphur remedy) and is unable to resettle. You're right that, in and of itself, that is not a problem. But, when she gets agitated at night, she scratches herself and often wakes up bloody. I believe that our Dr wants to work on the agitation with the Pulsatilla to see if she is less agitated, she would be less apt to scratch.
Many times when she wakes upset in the night she is up for hours on end. It is not healthy for her not to sleep.
I just read the method for wet dosing and I think I will follow that technique in the future with my daughter.
Thank you, John Stanton, for your replies and thoughts on our situation. It is appreciated.

I'm not sure, honestly.
My daughter still has eczema on her back and legs that causes her a lot of discomfort.
I imagine I will try the wet dose of Pulatilla as prescribed and then come back here for further help if we're still having problems.
The Naturopath just wanted her to take the Pulsatilla for 2 days in the morning.

Sulphur can disturb the sleep if given at night. This is why it is recommended to be taken in the morning.
If potency and dose of the chosen medicine is correct, it should work both ways - wet or dry.
