Founded by a pediatrician, inspired by nature and made with effective ingredients backed by science, parents and their hive can rely on Zarbee's® this back-to-school season
TORONTO, Aug. 17, 2023 /CNW/ - Zarbee's®, the #1 Pediatrician recommended cough syrup brand for babies and children in the United States1 is launching across Canada today, offering parents new solutions through a range of products that can help relieve cough and support immune systems.
Zarbee's® was founded in 2008 by father and pediatrician Dr. Zak Zarbock, who was inspired by nature and guided by science to seek new ways to help his kids and his patients. While aspiring to bring effective wellness solutions to life, he created a honey-based cough syrup for kids which has grown into a line of products that are made with purposefully selected medicinal ingredients like B vitamins, Zinc and naturally-sourced honey, English ivy leaf, and elderberry.
Zarbee's® understands the evolving needs of Canadian parents, who are seeking reliable products to help support their children's immune function and maintain good health, especially as seasons change.
"As parents prepare for back-to-school, Zarbee's® offers alternatives to traditional over-the-counter medicines, as an innovative way to help manage cough and sore throat symptoms," said Adam Ricciardone, father of three and Global Head of Research and Development for Self Care, Kenvue.* "With a commitment to family wellness, we're dedicated to crafting quality products that are made with effective ingredients backed by science, and give parents the confidence to provide their children with the care they need when they need it most."
Parents can now find a range of Zarbee's® age-specific formulations, in naturally delicious flavours, for their baby bees and big bees, including:
- Zarbee's® Baby Immunity Syrup, for babies 6 – 24 months
- Zarbee's® Baby Soothing Cough Syrup, for babies 12 – 24 months
- Zarbee's® Children's Immunity Syrup, for children 2–12 years
- Zarbee's® Children's Cough + Mucus Syrup, for children 2–12 years
- Zarbee's® Children's Complete Cough + Cold Syrup, for children 6–12 years.
The Zarbee's® expansion into Canada offers parents wellness solutions that cater to the unique needs of each age range. With a focus on providing cough and sore throat symptom relief and immune support, Zarbee's® helps enable kids to focus on learning and growing during the school year.
"Zarbee's® offers parents more pediatric options and enhances the availability of age-specific solutions to keep their busy bees going," said Katie Decker, Managing Director, Canada, Kenvue*. "With its longstanding reputation as a sought-after solution in the U.S., Canadian families can now reach for Zarbee's® as a trusted partner to promote the health and well-being of their little ones."
Zarbee's® is also proud to collaborate with Bee City Canada, a program of Pollinator Partnership Canada, as it launches in the country. Zarbee's® strives to create a positive impact by supporting Bee City Canada's initiatives and programs, which recognize and empower communities, schools, and organizations committed to maintaining pollinator habitats and educating communities about the vital role of pollinators.
