Giving baby medicine

Jessibear

My baby has reflux and he has medicine he is suppose to take three times a day. He does not like the taste and spits it out. I have even tried to squirt it fast in the back of his throat so he wont taste it as much and it would be quicker to swallow. Still no luck and I doubt he is getting any of it. does anyone have any tips or suggestions that worked for you?

I always blew on my kids face a little right after you put meds in and makes them swallow. That worked pretty good for me

Mrz_Jackson

If that don't work maybe try mixing it wit a little bit of his milk ? Goodluck

Don't dont do it fast. I learned thatwith my lo. Its best to do it really slow. And I do it right before a feeding and she'll kind of suck on the dropper. Rarely doesshe spit it out anymore. My lo is on zantac 2x a day.
