POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. Mixing medicine with milk can sometimes help make it more palatable for your 22-month-old son, but it’s important to check with your pediatrician or pharmacist first, as not all medications are suitable for mixing with milk or other foods. Some medications may lose effectiveness when combined with certain substances, and others might have a taste that is masked by milk. If mixing is not advised, try to administer the medicine using a syringe or dropper, aiming for the back of his cheek to make swallowing easier. You can also offer a favorite drink or a small treat afterward as a reward to encourage him. If he continues to refuse, discuss alternative forms of the medication, such as liquid, dissolvable tablets, or even a different flavor with your healthcare provider.
