It depends on the ferret and the med. Some meds are very bitter and for those we usually do go with a sweet medium and then follow the med with a treat every time so the ferret knows there will be a treat. We've tried a range of flavors and for each and every one there have been some ferrets who liked it and some who didn't. Heck, we even had one for one ferret for which the only acceptable flavor was fish oil. (Steve never could stomach giving that one, but it did work for that ferret with that particular med.)
