How am i supposed to swallow it if i always end up spitting it?

Question

those cough syrups are so bitter, i just can't force myself to swallow! How am i going to get rid of my cough if i always end up spitting it?

Answer 1

tricky little one aren't you? :))
well... try some pills instead of syrups

Answer 2

I can't stand certain medicines either, especially robotussin, so what I do is get the child cough medicines. Most of them have directions for how much an adult should take and you should have no problem swallowing them since they come in bubble gum, cherry, etc.

Answer 3

Cough medicine's come in pills, I find them easier to swallow then the, err, liquid version. However, if you are a gagger, they might still pose a problem.
I hope you feel better soon!

Answer 4

Drink lots and lots of it. The trick is to chase it. I find the best chaser is more cough syrup. and use Robitussin

Answer 5

Yes they are bitter,but if you swish it around for a minute or so and then envision that it is only a vanilla malt I'm sure your problem will be solved forever
