Has anyone had any success with finding a flavor that masks the drug
aminophylline well enough that their little one takes it easily? We have used grape,
grape vanilla, chocolate, raspberry, chocolate and raspberry together,
chocolate peanutbutter, and chicken. He will take his carafate which smells like
cherry so we might try that next. Could it be the suspension that is being used?
Our friends tease us that they feel like they're at Baskin Robbins when they
look at the # of med flavors that we have!
We're getting it down in the grape flavor mixed with a little food but it's
still stressful on him. If we could make it easier it'd be a tremendous help.
Thanks a million.
