DS is almost 3years old and will always have Panadol and hay fever meds without fuss. BUT he us refusing to have his antibiotics! I have tried everything, lolly, chocolate, honey... What can I do??

My DD is like that, she has to have hers mixed in with strawberry milk. Just got to make sure she drinks it all!

That tip was recommended to me by the doctor.

Ds has never been able to take meds.. He throws up.. I just make him half a bottle and put them though it.

Yep that's what we do

I've mixed it into milk, juice, yoghurt, custard

but always just used a little milk/juice/custard etc so I could be sure she finished it all

My youngest NEVER takes medicine and vomits it/spits it out the minute she detects it. I've tried milk, juice and once those little squeeze yoghurts. They worked well!
