Ep556. Renee sits down with clinical pharmacist and holistic wellness expert Sandra Tadros Guirguis to break down everything parents need to know heading into cough and cold season. Sandra shares realistic, science-backed tips for prevention, soothing symptoms, and navigating the pharmacy aisle—especially when it comes to younger kids who have fewer medication options.

From decoding ingredient lists (think honey, zinc, English ivy leaf, chamomile) to knowing when a cough needs medical attention, Sandra offers clear, practical advice that helps even the most panicked parent.
