Make home three small demon smoothly to take medicine, I have a trick!

Hi, I'm healthy higher-up,Three little boys at home makes my life every day full of "surprise".

The height of winter baby is sick, to feed the baby medicine is one of the most headache thing for parents. Children shouted cry day to don't want to take medicine, "uniform", but parents don't want to do "bad guys".

Especially in my house, is a patient of three children.

So, how can let the baby to take medicine, I summarized the following a few experience, hope to be of help!

❶ pieces,
With no ability to swallow baby, parents can be ground into a powder, take with warm water. Don't too high water temperature, otherwise it may destroy the drug ingredients.

Bitter taste is heavy, if the drugs can be warm water into sweet porridge or milk, dilute the bitter taste. For larger children, if the pill is lesser, can skip swallow grinding steps directly mixed with food.
❷ medicines artifact

Once you have children in the home, dropper, syringes, etc all have become the good assistant of an emergency.
When the baby need to take medicine, use the dropper, syringes suit can not only control the dose, can also directly across the tongue, from the throat into the mouth, avoid residual bitter taste on the tongue.

❸ bait-and-switch
This method only when used for the first time to reach peak, the effect of the drug into his favorite snack containers, children showed no resistance to favorite snacks, drinks, never drink, drugs have been taking succeed to react.

This method is suitable for liquid was easy to drink, baby just psychological fear.

❹ no sweet without sweat.
Assure the child before taking the medicine, eat medicine can eat a little bit of sugar or small snacks, bitter for sweet. With the anticipation that the food, overcome their fear of drugs, can let the child "tell us where fortune is.

❺ the sham as the genuine
Ask the doctor first, to ensure that drugs can be mixed in certain foods, and then will be mixed in the children's favorite food, drug and tell tell children can eat a few mouth today.
When children feel lucky inappropriately, undetected by baby swallowed the medicine。
For our three baby, the most useful way is "pieces" and "the sham as the genuine", you also can try.

Even with the above several methods, but also need to pay attention to the following three points:

❶ capsule drugs should be avoided
Capsule drug easy adhesion in the baby in the mouth, due to certain swallowing disorder.
If you can't avoid such drugs, let the baby drink plenty of water, before taking the medicine make oral environment moist again taking capsules, swallow mouth again, capsule will take much smoother.

❷ baby feeding method
Within 6 months of infants mainly use the spoon to feed the medicine, it is important to pay special attention to the baby's head first, cornering, face the small spoon into place gently down to the root of your tongue, make its produce swallow, let slowly flow into the liquid medicine, hear the sound of the swallow, then scoop out.

Syrup drugs taking difficulty is small compared with other drugs. But don't immediately after taking syrup for baby gulp of water, in order to avoid diluting drugs, reduce the curative effect.
❸ don't replace the feed with infusion medicine
Some parents are in the face of the baby, the difficulty of taking medicine, feel less direct infusion quick effect. But now the medical community has reached consensus, could be not intramuscular injection, oral can intramuscular injection fluids.

Lastly, there's a trick.!!!

Is children and play the game of doctors more at ordinary times, let the children know more about the process of an injection, take medicine, doctor, once appear, most children can accept, will not take medicine.

The future is also likely to want to be a little doctor!
