Tell us more about the pre-loaded syringes...that would be a very good
way to carry those meds.  Right now, we carry the bottle of Benadryl and
a med measuring spoon.  We have only needed to use it a couple of times
(sigh of relief), but it was clumsy...I have thought about a
pre-measured option, but didn't know of a leakproof one.  Do tell!
