Does flavored medicine not work as well as just the actual medicine?
cuz to me it seems that the flavored medicine is not that effective

They work just fine. The flavors are actually to cover up the unpleasant taste of medicine but they do not affect its effectiveness. If a certain medicine is not effective, it is not due to flavors but you may opt on trying another brand.

usually, flavored medicine is made for kids... so that it is easier to consume... so it is made according to the high metabolism and small size of a childs body...
if u think it doesnt work... i suggest u to ask for a non flavored one... i am not very sure which medicine and its contents and cannot suggest to try in higher quantities
cheers

Flavored is the same as normal but it has flavor if it wasn't as good they wouldn't allow it to be sold.

It works exactly the same. It is flavoured so that children will take it more readily.
