I hope someone can help. my 4 week old ds has been perscribed Flucloxacillan for a staphylococcal skin infection. its in syrup form and I only have a medicine spoon so any advice on the best way to give it to him.
It also says that it should be given an hour before food or on an empty stomach. How can I do this with the least amount of stress as when he next wakes he will want feeding and don't relish the idea of waking him early and then having to wait an hour before I can feed him with all the crying that will probably intail. Do I have to just grin and bear it??
