Reviews
We offer to familiarize with the responses of parents who used Tenoten for children:
- Irina. "Tenoten" prescribed a pediatric neurologist for my son, because of hyperactivity, then he was 5 years old. We started to take it as prescribed. After 2-3 days, everyone, including teachers in the kindergarten, began to notice that he became even more active, and not calmer. To drink tablets have ceased. I concluded that they do not have any effect at all. Now we just take glycine, it's got a little calmer.
- Olga. My child was registered with a neurologist from birth, in connection with heavy childbirth. The child was irritable, restless, did not sleep well, often cried + also hyperactivity. And periodically we drank the course of sedatives. Recently we were assigned "Tenoten". Began to take it on prescription. But it only got worse. All our problems only worsened. And by night, so the child did not calm down, shouted, cried and could not fall asleep. After a week of suffering, we refused. We did not come.
- Larissa. We tried the children's Tenoten and its analogue - Glytsin, and I did not notice any difference in efficiency, and the price of the latter is much lower. I do not advise you not to give such drugs to a child, since, like other medications, they load internal organs. It is better to give mint teas in the stressful periods, more fresh fruits, etc.

What is the difference between a children's and an adult Tenoten?
The main and only difference between Tenoten for adults and children is the dosage of the active substance (antibodies to the brain-specific substance S-100). Many people think that the dose of the active substance in the children's and adult medications is the same, but this is not so. A similar error occurs because the instruction is read incorrectly.
So, the instructions for use indicate that in each tablet, both children's and adult Tenoten contains 3 mg of active substance, which leads people to think about their identity. However, above the figure of 3 mg there is an asterisk symbol, meaning that you should watch a footnote that indicates what the concentration of the active ingredient in these three milligrams is in fact. For children's Tenoten concentration of active substance is 10-16 ng / g, and for an adult - 10-15 ng / g. That is, in the children's Tenotene contains 3 milligrams of the mixture, the concentration of active substance in which is 10-16 ng / g (10-19 ng / mg). Accordingly, the adult Tenotene contains 3 milligrams of the mixture with an active substance concentration of 10-15 ng / g (10-18 ng / mg). Thus, the active substance in the adult Tenotene is 10 times greater than in the child.
