Guest guest Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Okay - I am sorry - I know the questions are getting redundant here - is there any way to set up a data base on the home page that can list the answers we are all asking? You know - how much, what kind, when....I think it may be easier - just a suggestion I have another question - for those of you using a syringe or dropper - how in the world are you getting them cleaned when you are done!!!! I would also love to know more on this coremega stuff - is it easier to give - I have aggravated my sons reflux to the point is out of control because he gags so much on the oils....

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 > " ...for those of you using a syringe or dropper - how in the world are you getting them cleaned when you are done!!!!... " I wash my Safety First Medicine Syringe in very hot water and I put some liquid hand detergent in it and rinse it out very well. The Vit E is very hard to get out! The last type I had was " water soluble " but it was synthetic Vit E which is what I don't want. I use Q-Tips. I hold one end with tweezers so I can reach the bottom of the syringe. I have to use both sides of 3-4 Q-Tips to clean out all the oil! (I rinse in hot water before I use the syringe again.) I can't use a fatter and easier to clean medicine syringe as my son gags on anything else. I give my son all his Vit E in the am so in the pm when he gets his second dose of fish oils I don't have to do my Q-Tip cleaning again!

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2006 Report Share Posted September 16, 2006 Well, first of all, I mix the oils with a little juice, so they don't go into the dropper straight. Then I flush the dropper with a little water and a good bit of dish soap, then I take the dropper apart and put it in the dishwasher. This seems to do the trick. > > > " ...for those of you using a syringe or dropper - how in the world > are you getting them cleaned when you are done!!!!...
