Children who cannot swallow pills are advised to consult a doctor for a granular medication with an equivalent effect or the pills can be crushed and given to the child. When a child is relatively young and does not know how to swallow pills, it is advisable to consult a doctor and replace the pills with granules or syrup preparations that have an equal or similar effect. If there is no alternative medicine available, the pills can be crushed into a powder and then given in warm water with the powder. If the medicine is bitter and the child has difficulty taking it, the child can be made to take the medicine by putting the powder in fruit juice or milk, or by adding some glucose or sugar to warm water as appropriate. If the above methods are not effective in making the child take the medicine, parents can go to the pharmacy to buy a medicine dispenser for children to dispense the medicine. However, parents should have a certain degree of patience when feeding the child, not to reprimand or scold the child, so as to avoid the child’s rebellious mentality. Children who cannot swallow pills can seek advice from their doctor.
