Child spitting medicine given to him

2022-05-19 13:44:45
Hi, Background: My kid is 2 years old and he has a cough these days. He doesn't like to take the cough syrup given by the Doctor and he spits the syrup as soon as we put it into his mouth using a small cup or a dropper. Question: Can I mix the medicine in any stuff like juice, yogurt, shakes etc and give to him?
