Tenoten for children - 37 reviews, instructions for use

Children, like adults, experience nervous shocks - difficulties at school, exams, parental divorce and much more. As a result, the child begins to eat and sleep poorly, which leads to even greater health difficulties. Children at an early age can simply scream, cry, be too active, and parents will think that something is wrong with their baby. In such situations, pediatrician Komarovsky recommends not Tenoten for children, but walking more, not overfeeding, and monitoring the temperature and room humidity. In the case of schoolchildren, you need to communicate more, delve into the child’s problem, and exclude the influence of adult problems. According to the manufacturers, the drug Tenoten can reduce stress, providing a quick positive effect. Is it so?

How safe is the drug for children?

When asked whether a homeopathic medicine is safe or not for children, you should know that only if you follow the recommendations of your pediatrician or neurologist can you protect your child from negative effects from the medicine.

Tenoten is a pharmacological drug that has restrictions on its use, adverse reactions and special instructions. Therefore, the use of the drug in the treatment of a child should be taken with full responsibility, despite the fact that the medicine is a harmless (at first glance) homeopathic medicine.

The instructions for use of the product describe only personal intolerance to the drug and the fact that the drug in such a strong dilution cannot harm the child’s body. But this is not a reason to prescribe the drug to your child yourself.

Only a specialist doctor knows the intricacies of treatment and the fact that each child is individual. You cannot use any medications, even the safest ones, without consulting a pediatrician. This will be the correct answer to whether Tenoten is safe or not.

Tenoten and alcohol: compatibility

Tenoten tablets are homeopathic, which eliminates negative reactions with alcohol-containing drinks.

However, the effects of the drug and alcohol are completely opposite, so the therapeutic effect is completely neutralized.

In case of nervous disorders, it is prohibited to take any alcohol, because strong drinks increase agitation, which is undesirable when the psycho-emotional background is destabilized.

Among other things, alcohol disrupts metabolic processes and negatively affects the functioning of nerve cells.

Hence the conclusion: during the period of therapy you should avoid drinking strong drinks.

Instructions for use

Tenoten for children (reviews from parents advise adults to use the drug as well - the medicine is available in dosages for people over 18 years of age) is a medicine that must be used:

at different periods of growing up and restructuring of the child’s body, the so-called transition period - 3 years, 7 years and 14 years. At this time of life, active physical growth occurs, and as we know, a person grows in parts and the nervous system may not keep up with the speed of body growth. Because of this imbalance, misbehavior and more serious problems occur;
during the period of acquaintance with a new team in various children's institutions, when the child is faced with an unusual environment and new people;
in the process of education - all children are different, some learn school material quickly, others more slowly, the still unformed psyche of a little person needs help;
for older children - these are exams, tests, admission to educational institutions, hormonal changes, formation of oneself, awareness of oneself as a maturing individual - nerve cells often need medicinal help to cope with the load;
stress on the body in the form of disease is stress on the immune system, which will struggle to promote healing from the underlying disease, and the nervous system will suffer. In this case, a nootropic, homeopathic drug should be used.

Reviews from people after use

Anastasia, 29 years old:

My son entered first grade and problems immediately arose due to his hyperactivity. The child could not sit through a single lesson, which interfered with the work of both the teacher and his classmates. I had to seek help from a neurologist, who prescribed Tenoten. After several days of taking the medicine, it showed its effectiveness. The son not only behaves calmer, but his academic performance has also increased, he has become more collected, and his concentration has improved.

Reviews from adults on forums are mostly positive, which only confirms the high effectiveness of treatment with Tenoten.

Maria, 34 years old:

I work as an accountant, most of the time I am in a state of stress due to high responsibility and constant mistakes of my subordinates. The nervous disorder reached its climax - I almost stopped sleeping at night. After seeing a doctor, I decided to take my health seriously. I took a vacation, went to the sea, and began taking Tenoten to stabilize my psycho-emotional background. This, as the doctor said, is an analogue of the famous Deprim.

The tablets are well absorbed and there are no side effects. In a couple of months I brought my mental state back to normal, of course, not without the help of the drug.

Nootropic and anxiolytic

When they say “nervous child,” they mean sudden mood swings, tearfulness, restless sleep, hyperactivity and inability to concentrate. The cause of these conditions may be neuropathies and neuroses. Psycho-emotional disorders in children occur against the background of immaturity of the nervous system, which is manifested in the predominance of excitation processes over inhibition.

Treatment of a nervous child involves prescribing drugs from the groups of anxiolytics and nootropics, B vitamins that strengthen the nervous system. Nootropics act as neurometabolic stimulants, that is, they improve blood circulation, metabolism and nervous tissue function.

Important! The effects of nootropic drugs on mental function are reflected by their informal name: “cognitive enhancers.”

"Tenoten for children", as a drug for improving brain function, in addition to nootropic, has an anxiolytic effect. The effect is manifested in a reduction or complete elimination of anxiety, anxiety, and fear.

Side effects

dyspepsia in the form of loose stools or, conversely, constipation;
unpleasant sensations in the form of dry mouth;
headache;
chills;
immunological manifestations in the form of nettle rash;
runny nose;
lacrimation;
increased heart rate;
hypotension;
bloating;
body itching;
excessive excitement or, conversely, excessive calm;
joint pain;
increased symptoms of the disease (in the first days this is normal, if they do not go away, therapy should be reconsidered).

I prescribe Tenoten for stress, nervous tension and other disorders. The medicine is homeopathic, which eliminates a negative reaction from the body. It is convenient to take without interruption from work activities.

The active substances do not cause drowsiness, and there is no addiction to the drug. During therapy, on the contrary, stimulation of mental activity is noted.

Tamanchenko V.V., neurologist with 7 years of experience:

A sedative is included in therapy for mental stress, irritability and other nervous disorders that occur due to stress and depression. To achieve the desired effect, you need to take it in a course. The dosage and duration of treatment is determined by the attending physician.

Strong headache;

Strong headache;

special instructions

During a consultation with a doctor, you need to tell the specialist about all chronic pathologies in the child (if any) and do not be embarrassed to seem verbose - after all, we are talking about the health of a small patient.

This is also necessary in order to avoid negative manifestations from the body - after all, the doctor will be able to draw the right conclusions about the child’s condition and what he can and cannot do.

In addition, you should know for yourself that the homeopathic remedy has special instructions for use:

if there is a genetic disease of improper conversion of galactose into fructose, the doctor assesses the need to prescribe this particular drug;

The remedy is classified as a homeopathic remedy that has a nootropic and anxiolytic effect on humans. In another way, nootropic drugs are also called neurometabolic stimulants. Translated from Greek, the interpretation of this concept sounds like “to change the mind.” That is, we can say that such drugs improve memory and brain activity in general. They protect it from the influence of aggressive factors.

The anxiolytic effect is a reduction in the time it takes a person to fall asleep, as well as eliminating anxiety, increasing the period of sleep and reducing the number of awakenings at night. In other words, this drug is also a mild sleeping pill. Therefore, it is often used in pediatrics. Instructions for use describe this quality of a product such as “Tenoten for Children”. Reviews, however, are mixed on the medicine, so you should delve deeper into its mechanism of action.

Comparison of drugs

"Tenoten for children" or "Glycine"

If we compare the descriptions of these drugs, the second one is more credible.

In addition, the price of the drug “Glycine” is almost 4 times lower (43–46 rubles for 50 pieces).

Important! The amino acid affects brain metabolism and is considered a drug for improving memory. The action of glycine is more diverse.

The medicine "Glycine" has all the advantages of nootropics and is well tolerated by children and adults. This substitute for Tenoten for children can be taken by children. The amino acid makes it easier to fall asleep, reduces conflict, and improves social adaptation. The effect of taking pills: increased attention and improved learning.

Reviews from parents

But there are some people who believe that the medicine has no effect at all. From the statistics of online reviews it is clear that the majority of parents were still satisfied with the results of treatment with a homeopathic drug.

Children's Tenoten should be safely used for the treatment of psycho-emotional instability in children from 3 years to 18 years old, which can be heard from neurologists and learned from reviews of parents whose children took therapy with the drug.
