Baby refusing to take medicine

2023-10-12 08:34:51
My baby has been coughing for the past two days. I am giving her syrup but the main problem which I am facing every time she gets ill is that she always refuses to take medicine. And it's becoming very tough to handle her alone while giving medicine. Please suggest any alternative way of giving syrup to my toddler.
