Guest guest Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 I'm glad this all came up cause I have alot of questions. We are building up to 5ml 4 times a day. How in the world do you get this down them 4 times a day!? We give all the vitamins, CLO, zinc... right before bed. It is terrible for him and takes sometimes up to 30 min. for him to get it down and not spit it back up. He also is VERY healthy and I could count on one hand how many times he has taken anti. so I just don't know about this much and how important is it to get it in him this often and 30 min. before he eats. Thanks for any help. The GFCF diet is hard enough, just seems like the Dr. forgets he is dealing with a little 5 year old that has very different sensory problems and such! W. PS the link that was given on how to mix the Vit. is unavailable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 29, 2001 Report Share Posted November 29, 2001 Hi , When I gave my 5 yr old nystatin I had a compounding pharmacist make it up in powdered capsules. Then I just mixed the nystatin with a drop of water and some stevia to sweeten it and put in a syringe and squirted down his throat. That way you are only giving maybe 1/4 of a ml and it goes down quick. Plus no sugar in the powder, I think the liquid form has sugar.Still tastes gross but the stevia helped alot! I agree, I hate when my doc says " give him this, that, and the other thing " when they taste awful and the kid can't swallow pills and is only 5 yrs old. How do you get the CLO in? I've never managed that. Good Luck... > I'm glad this all came up cause I have alot of questions. We are > building up to 5ml 4 times a day.
