Triaminic - vegan?

When my boyfriend is sick he will take Triaminic syrups with much less fuss than other things (big baby). I was under the assumption that Triaminic was vegan for all these years. I do not understand the wording of this site:

It says that the syrups are vegan, then it says questionable a few sentences below. What is the deal? For the record it misspelled on the last bit too...no 'sour' throat!

My boyfriend is sick again & I need to get to Walgreens...:(

I don't see the questionable sentences. it says that all triaminic cough syrups are vegan. what's the questionable part?

If I understand their formatting correctly, the bolded text on the website separates the different categories of vegan vs non-vegan medicine. The sentence about Triaminic being vegan comes after the bit about ones that are questionable. It's a little confusing but I don't think they are questioning that Triaminic is vegan.

OK cool beans - I originally saw the list some place else...I was concerned and thought it was odd.

If you have not tried the syrups before - they work wonders, even if you are not a kid. Adult friends we know use them.
