Many liquid medications, including both prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs, are made for children and are flavoured to mask the taste of the medication. Before measuring the proper dose of liquid medication, make sure to shake the bottle as some of the medication may have settled at the bottom Pharmacist should give a spoon, medicine cup, medicine dropper, or a syringe without a needle meant specifically for measuring medications. Pharmacist should show how to properly use these. Many over-the-counter liquid medications come with a small medicine cup attached to the top of the bottle. If the medication has been prescribed for an infant or young child, make sure to speak with your paediatrician about the proper dosage, or amount, of liquid medication for your child
