A. you have to always complete the course of medicine given by your doctor. many medicines can be mixed with water food juice and milk and given to the child so please confirm with your doctor which medicine can be mixed with food and given to the child. also you can keep some taste changing food in your hand and give that taste enhancer immediately after giving the medicine which might decrease the chances of vomiting post giving medicine.s many times a divergence technique also helps in small children that is you give the medicine and immediately divert the child with some music or sound or playful activity. you mays give the medicine with the help of a dropper or a syringe (without needle) from the corner of the mouth

A. Try to put your baby on lap ajd and give syrup so they can swallow. Its a way elders do. U can try. If it continues, I feel It's better to check with your doctor and follow their advise. That would be one of the best and safest option for your baby as of now.
