Question: Is there any way to improve the flavor of my toddler's liquid antibiotic? She refuses to take it!

Answer:Walgreens offers a service called FLAVORx to enhance the flavor of some liquid medications, including certain antibiotics such as Augmentin® (amoxicillin) suspension. FLAVORx is approved by the Food and Drug Administration. Talk to your pharmacist about adding a flavor next time you are filling a liquid prescription. (Some adults may prefer a flavored liquid medication, too!)

Find more information about medication flavoring at Walgreens, including a list of medications suitable for flavoring.
