My LG refuses her antibiotics

My LG hates the orange flavour of her antibiotics. She keeps spitting them out. Any advice on how I can make her take them? She needs to take them on an empty stomach.

I think as long as they are going in its better than nothing, I put it on toast for my lb, hot toast and let it soak in and then put butter and jam/peanut butter/marmite

We were in the same boat. We ended up having to get ours changed xx

Thank you. I will try to mix them with food and if it doesn't work I will ask to get them changed

we had the same issue this week with our son and his banana-flavored antibiotics so we mixed it with orange juice, we had no other choice it was traumatic for all of us trying to get it in him with a syringe 😬

My Lb is on amoxicillin just now and I’m just adding it into his milk. Every time we tried giving it to him straight he just puked it back up but doesn’t seem to notice it in the milk! X

Thank you for all the great ideas. I honestly don't know why they make them in that horrible flavour 😩

Does your little one still have milk from a bottle? We give me a couple let him have a couple of mouth fulls and then take it out and give him the medicine and he takes it (thinks it’s still milk maybe) and then put the milk straight back in x
