The claim was substantiated, in May of 2021, using a random sample of pediatricians from all over the country. Each pediatrician had children between the ages of 2 and 11. All the pediatricians said they have used, or would be willing to use, an OTC acetaminophen product for treating their own children’s pain and fever.

Each pediatrician was shown the front of the packaging, as well as a list of the corresponding ingredients, for Genexa’s Kids’ Pain & Fever product and each of the Children’s Tylenol® Pain + Fever liquid products. They were asked based ONLY upon their review of the ingredients in each product, which, if any, they would prefer to give to their own children. A large majority of the pediatricians selected Genexa’s product over Tylenol’s products (Children's Tylenol® Pain + Fever Oral Suspension Cherry Flavor, Children's Tylenol® Pain + Fever Oral Suspension Grape Flavor, Children's Tylenol® Pain + Fever Oral Suspension Bubblegum Flavor, Children's Tylenol® Pain + Fever Oral Suspension Strawberry Flavor, Children's Tylenol® Pain + Fever Oral Suspension Dye-Free Cherry Flavor).*

*The error range around these percentages is ± 5.4 percentage points. If all 5.4 percentage points were at the expense of Genexa Kids’ Pain & Fever and all went to a Children’s Tylenol Pain + Fever product, then results would show 62.7% preferring Genexa Kids’ Pain & Fever and 31.7% preferring Children’s Tylenol Pain + Fever Oral Suspension overall, leaving a meaningful percentage still favoring Genexa.

The claim was substantiated, in March of 2022, using a random sample of pediatricians from all over the country. The study was administered under “double blind” conditions. Each pediatrician had children between the ages of 6 and 11, and at least one of those children had experienced allergies. All the pediatricians said they have used, or would consider using, an OTC diphenhydramine HCl product for treating their own children’s allergy symptoms.

Each pediatrician was asked to review an unbranded list of active and inactive ingredients in four allergy products for children (Genexa® Kids’ Allergy Liquid, Children’s Benadryl® Allergy Liquid, Children’s Benadryl® Dye-Free Allergy Liquid, and Children’s Benadryl® Chewables). They were only shown ingredient lists – not names of products. They were asked based ONLY upon their review of the ingredients in each product, which one of them, if any, they would prefer to give to their own children ages 6-11 to help relieve their allergy symptoms, and which one of them, if any, they would prefer for their 6-11 year old patients to help relieve their allergy symptoms.

Based solely on a review of the unbranded ingredients, 79.4% of the pediatricians selected prefer the ingredients in Genexa® Kids’ Allergy Liquid over the ingredients in any Children’s Benadryl® Allergy products to help relieve their 6-11 year old children’s allergy symptoms*. 82.1% of the pediatricians selected prefer the ingredients in Genexa® Kids’ Allergy Liquid over the ingredients in any Children’s Benadryl® Allergy products to help relieve their 6-11 year old patients’ allergy symptoms**.

*The error range for the percentage preferring the Genexa® ingredients for their own children ages 6-11 is ± 4.7 percentage points. If all 4.7 percentage points were at the expense of Genexa Kids’ Allergy Liquid and all went to Children’s Benadryl® Allergy product, then results would show 74.7% preferring Genexa® Kids’ Allergy Liquid and 25.3% preferring a Children’s Benadryl® Allergy product overall, leaving a meaningful percentage still favoring Genexa®.

**The error range for the percentage preferring the Genexa ingredients for their 6-11 year old patients is ± 4.4 percentage points. If all 4.4 percentage points were at the expense of Genexa Kids’ Allergy Liquid and all went to Children’s Benadryl® Allergy product, then results would show 77.7% preferring Genexa® Kids’ Allergy Liquid and 22.3% preferring a Children’s Benadryl® Allergy product overall, leaving a meaningful percentage still favoring Genexa®.
