Megs_Mom Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Hi all - ok, so have a mom that does not post here - daughter cannot take pills (horse) for Augmentin, she wants a liquid. Doc says not sure what to prescribe, wants advice on this - tells her to ask other moms (well, I appreciate someone listening to all of us - but REALLY!?!?!) Her daughter is about 68 lbs. Can anyone type out the exact description on the bottle, so she can ask for a script? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lyme_mom Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 Other option is to cut the pill in half and have her swallow half at a time. They r huge and that's what we do for my son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
