hi!
i always took the tablet + crushed up in an oral syringe, added about 1-2cc of water and squirted it into iZ's mouth ... followed quickly by a squirt of plain water ... now i just hide stuff in his oranges ... *CHOMP!* ... all gone!

the liquid-form Baytril can be given by injection or orally, tho reportedly it's very bitter ... and hard to hide in an orange i'd think!

weird tho ... when i have to give him any kind of medicine i tell him that it's *medicine* and i swear it's like he understands he has to take it even if it tastes yechy ... and he knows he'll get a *drink* right after ... poor guy's been thru too much ...

interesting that they've tried to make the oral meds more palatable for our kids tho! 'bout time they realized our kids are people too! *grin*
