I’m SO thankful that none of my boys have to take medicine on a regular basis, and I can count on one hand how many times I’ve had prescriptions filled for sick kids. But I know many of you are not so lucky and may struggle with getting your kids to take their nasty-tasting medicine.
Well, I recently discovered FLAVORx which lets you choose from 15 custom flavors to add to your child’s medicine (like chocolate, bubble gum, sour apple, mango and more). It’s available at over 45,000 pharmacies, including Target, CVS, Walgreens, and Wal-Mart. Pssst….if you’re looking for a deal, it’s only $1.88 at Walmart vs. $2.99 at most other places.
Yeah, Mary Poppins was onto something when she said, “just a spoonful or sugar helps the medicine go down.” But what’s great about FLAVORx is that it’s sugar-free, dye-free, casein-free and even gluten-free!
And it’s simple to get. After your doctor sends a prescription to the pharmacy, just ask your pharmacist to add FLAVORx to the medicine. What’s really neat is you can use Fred the Flavorbot to help you choose the flavor that goes best with your specific medicine.
