my son is 14 and has a infection on his gum, on friday he got a antibiotic prescription from his dentist.
however, he wont swallow it, it took one and half hours to get him to take one. and even then he chewed it first , which is not the correct way to take it.
its now sunday and this infection burst in his mouth, and he swallowed that!
so am now really worried that he is going to get really poorly soon.
plan to go back to dentist on monday morining , but as they are normally pretty busy its going to take some time to get something he can take.
any hints or tips to get him to swallow the pills anyone?
