Some pharmacies especially compounding pharmacies can flavor a liquid medicine. If you see that it's just not working at all you may have to call your pediatrician and see if they can do a shot in that situation if you don't see improvement.

Thanks, Tiffani.
To be honest, my grandson has not been formally diagnosed with ODD. Perhaps I have jumped to conclusions!
We humans can be pretty complex at times!

In my household, we have an ongoing challenge with my five-year-old. He refuses to take liquid Tylenol, so we've switched to kid-safe tablets. Even with the tablets, giving him the medication is still a big struggle. However, when he had an ear infection, he had to take liquid antibiotics, and we had to negotiate with him every time he needed to take the medicine.

Do they still make bubblegum-flavored antibiotic liquid? That stuff was bomb when I was little! 😊

I still wouldn't trust it but I am very familiar with the criteria as well as all disassociative cognitive disorders the mind is not formed enough with set patterns as it is around adulthood parents complain Dr's write a prescription regardless no medication fixes this issue it's not like an infection that requires medication cognitive disorders require intense dedication to behavior therapy. Considering basic autism therapy covers development and behavior therapy I'd be very resistive to a diagnosis prior to puberty
