Problem is I can't get her to take the meds. I tried using the syringe and squirting a little bit at a time in the back of her mouth and holding her mouth closed to force her to swallow it. Instead she held it in her mouth and ended up choking on it and throwing up. The pharmacist recommended mixing it with chocolate pudding, she spit the first bite out and then refused to take another bite. I put it in chocolate milk which is her favorite... she took a couple drinks, said it tasted yucky and now refuses to drink any more. How important are the meds for this? Any other suggestions on ways to get her to take the meds?
