For Ellie, I drop it in the back of her mouth and push it down with my finger. Choking may be a concern this way but she does fine. You can also try a pill gun. Or put it on his tongue and close his mouth until he swallows. Or put it in his mouth, close it and then syringe a small amount of water in to give him some liquid to swallow with. If you do this, be careful to put the water in the side of his mouth and don't squirt it down his throat. Or if it dissolved that easily, dissolve it in a very small amount of water for a minute and syringe it into the side of his mouth. I'm guessing you can dissolve or crumble it since it's doing it on it's own anyway, so you could feed soft food, crush the pill and mix it in.
