DS (2) has been prescribed a course of oral antibiotics (penicillin) for 10 days. Have to give them 4x per day and it tastes revolting.
He understandably balked at the first dose and refused anymore, so I mixed it with yogurt. He had one mouthful and then said no more.
I tasted it and the flavour is so strong it wasn't masked at all by the fromage frais. Husband ended up getting him to take the medicine but it didn't sound fun
How can I make it taste better? I don't want to add anything that may affect the medicine..... Any ideas?
TIA
