We're completely DONE with the Albon....so mixing meds isn't my concern. It was just getting the Metronidazole down. Apple Sauce did the trick! He slurpped it right up, and begged for more....didn't even notice that he had eaten the pill! Thanks for all your advice and suggestions. |

Crushing and mixing is a great idea. But don't ever crush a pill that is extended release. You are getting all the medicine at once that is intended to resease slowly through out an extended period of time. |

YAY! I'm glad the Applesauce worked! Pixie is on a pill right now for her pain/swelling... Now, we've done pills before, but I try with every pill I get to give it to her nicely. If you wrap it in meat, she takes the meat in her mouth, picks it apart, eats the meat, and spits the pill out. HAH! You can even totally wrap it and make it impossible to see and fall out - but she knows its there and refuses to eat it. She can't have dairy products, so we can't do the cheese or ice cream or anything... I've never tried apple sauce though :p Maybe I should! As it is, I'm forcefeeding the pill... and speaking of pills.. she's overdue. |
Hey I'm glad something worked! We've had to give Loki that stuff and it was nasty. I mushed up some cheese so it was completely surrounded in the cheese and he would STILL spit it out and eat the cheese, so I started to get TWO pieces of cheese - I gave him the wrapped pill first and then held out a HUGE hunk of plain cheese. He'd swallow the first one so that I could give him the second one. Otherwise he'd run away and spit it out! |
