How do you cut it to get the correct dosage? I believe I read to use the caplet because other forms if cut affect the tongue and mouth. 
For people who use the liquid, is it the flavored variety - cherry or grape? The ingredients list only states "flavoring" so I don't know what exactly that is.
I don't have an immediate need for the Benadryl -- just want it in my first aid kit. |
The only one I could find over here doesn't taste like anything. I tasted a bit and it is not a good flavor. But what I do is put it on a spoon and then add little pieces of ham to the mixture. Itzel then tries to get to the ham and ends up drinking her medication as well. I guess it helps masks the flavor. I'm sure she doesn't mind the taste too much because even with ham, if it tasted horrible, she wouldn't drink it. I can't squirt the medication into her mouth with a syringe. If you do that to her, she completely freaks out. I think it's because when she was a puppy, I had her on Metronidazol and I had to give it to her through a syringe. I've never taken that drug, but I heard it tastes awful. So I don't blame my poor baby for being traumatized against having medication like that.
