Does she just not like taking pills?

Try having her tilt her head forward while taking it, goes down much easier....

I use chunky peanut butter when the girl won't swallow a pill....she doesn't even notice that it's in there:yay:

Lucky for me, she is the only one that doesn't take pills well

I was gonna say hide the pill in peanut butter as well.

Just don't tell her that I got this "trick" after watching my mom give her dog a pill the same way :lmao:

Carbonated water or soda also works real good

To this day... I put the water in my mouth first... tilt my head back as if to gargle.. then drop a pill in and swallow in one motion...

Works perfectly almost every time. Never gag or taste the pill going down.

Tilting your head back actually closes your throat.. If you tilt your head at all it should be tilted forward....

It works for me. :shrug:
Guess that's why the water stays in there until I drop the pill in.
Soon as I swallow, everything goes down at once... never taste a thing. Never gag on the pill. Works perfectly.

Alright, spill your tried & true methods for getting a kid to take a pill that cannot be crushed, sprinkled in jello/pudding/yogurt/etc., or dissolved in a liquid. :tap:

I learned a new one today that we're trying tomorrow -- a spoonful of chocolate syrup w/the pill in the spoon. I'll report on the results tomorrow. :yay:
I'm 26 and still have a hard time swallowing pills. It will take me forever to get a Motrin down. Just something I've always been afraid of. :ohwell:
