[quote=Anonymous]Start with TicTac‘s or M&Ms. Another strategy is to put the pill in some pudding or applesauce. Your child is a tween,,.she’s going to have to figure out how to swallow pills eventually. I hate to say this but maybe you could dangle a small prize if she swallows a pill. What is her currency right now? Use that to your advantage. I know the strategy is used very successfully on younger kids, but it is worth a try if any of the other methods don’t work first. FWIW, I have one child on ADHD meds and we used both the pudding and prize methods. No issues now about pills. [/quote]
