Help Gabe is running a temp and he won’t take any medicine I try my best to give him something but he always spits it out what can I do to keep his temp down
If it helps, my kids only like the grape flavor of all the medicines (Motrin, Tylenol)
If the medicine is liquid form give him a little bit of juice with the medicine in it.v without him knowing the medicine is in it
Cool bath helps too and a wet towel on the neck and feet , sit him on the counter and make him take the medicine
How high is the temp? Honestly I'd just monitor it and make sure he's getting fluids and rest. I avoid treating fevers unless they get too high or they're very uncomfortable and not eating/drinking. The fever is their body's natural response to fight whatever's wrong, keeping it down can actually prolong being sick. Meds can also mask other symptoms
