Child won't take meds

3 year old has a viral illness for over a week. Perks up if she takes calpol or Brufen. It's a battle. Tried bribery, confiscating toys, persuasion, hiding it in drinks... she only falls for a trick once. Any foolproof ideas that I can convince her to try! At my wits end with a clinging whinging child 😖
