A member asked:
My 1.4 year old baby was prescribed erythromycin (4x 3cc per day for 5days). can she take her antibiotic with her formula? (she hates taking meds)..
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: I don't recommend putting the medicine in the formula, because she won't the full dose. You can squirt it in the mouth while drinking formula if she will let you by putting the tip of the syringe in the corner of the mouth and slowly squirting it while she drinks.
