• The use of hydrocodone in children younger than 6 years has led to deadly breathing problems. Talk with the doctor.
• This medicine is not for use in children younger than 18 years of age. The benefits of taking hydrocodone and chlorpheniramine extended-release suspension for a cough due to allergies, a cold, or other infection do not outweigh the risks in children. If your child has been given hydrocodone and chlorpheniramine extended-release suspension or if you have any questions, talk with your child's doctor.
