Guest guest Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 Hey everybody, I came across an advertisement in one of my medical journals for a product called Flavorx. It's used to make meds taste better. They have 41 different flavors and can create more to your child's specification. According to their website, they have done a great deal of research to make sure the flavors don't effect the medications. Not just in the US, either " The FLAVORx System is available in over 2000 pharmacies in the United States, Canada, the Bahamas, Australia, and New Zealand, and in 25 of the top hospitals across the United States. " The website has a locator to show you which pharmacies have the product. When your doctor writes a script you have him add a request for the flavoring. I'm not sure how this affects the cost, but it sounds great! I thought this might help some of you who have trouble getting your kids to take meds. BTW, it can even be used for over the counter meds. Has anyone tried this already? www.flavorx.com Keeley mom to Leila, 6m. wcf, and Hadley, 2.5yrs. nocf P.S. The website was a little slow to load, so be patient.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 YES, We have used " FlavorX " in many meds for years- Yes, they will tell you it doesn't cost , but there is a very slight added cost-actually pennies:) We say it takes the YUCKY out ..........We also flavor our own EmulsaE, a water soluble vitamin we have been making for 17 years. ----There are allot of mixtures we use like that ...BUT we are also a compounding specialty pharmacy as well . Anything that can help anyone get the help they need thru the medication----and it taste better , it is only right to do LOVE & HUGS, grandmomBEV Making meds taste better...

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2003 Report Share Posted January 25, 2003 Hello. We have tried the flavoring and it works wonders. We have it in Cipro and we use the cherry flavoring. It doesn't work in all meds though so be sure to ask the pharmacist. It does cost a little more per prescription but it is worth it mom to 3wcf and Brenna 7wocf Making meds taste better...
