[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was 17. I’m having difficulty getting my 13 year old to swallow pills. We had to get prescription ibuprofen liquid because we couldn’t find adult size liquid over the counter. [/quote] You don’t need prescription medicine. Just take more of the children’s. Liquid medicine has a concentration - like 100 mg/5 ml or whatever, and if you need 200 mg, you take 10 ml, 400 mg, 20 ml. It’s annoying to drink all that liquid, but cheaper than ordering prescription. And it might encourage him to learn to swallow a pill. [/quote]
