Parents: Does the medicine strips for children really work? Or is the liquid

Simply Lucy · #1 (**permalink**) 04-28-2008, 06:16 PM

medication just better? Sure, they are easy to give to your child -- if you can get it into their mouth, they can't spit it out. I have a 2 year old and given medicine is the HUGEST battle and I never know if she gets enough ... so you never know if the medicine is helping or not. So, I see these strips or "thin strips" where it suppose to be easier... BUT do they work? OR is this just a good idea but give it some time and it will be taken off the shelf.

THANKS
