Reviews

We picked up some reviews of people about the drug Diazolin:
Nona

    Diazolin is considered the most effective and harmless drug against allergies. Any redness, sneezing and even a small cough of an allergic nature removes this drug rather quickly. I always give the child when the flowering begins on the street - for prevention. Or when I give the child any medications to avoid allergies.
Larisa

I was somehow treated for allergy to oranges with diazolin. Took a week, three times a day, one tablet. And then for some reason my feces became almost black. I did not drink any more drugs. Why such a reaction to diazolin do not know. I have a mild gastritis, but this is not a very serious disease. In contraindications about gastritis, not a word is said, but I have no ulcers. The stomach also does not hurt at all, except that the color makes me worried.
