Pills can often be big to swallow or bitter in the mouth. To easily feed the pill to the child, it is helpful to place the drug in two-thirds of the back of the tongue. At this time, the child's head should be slightly leaned back to help them swallow, with water.

Caution : Pills should not be stripped or powdered to feed coated tablets. This is because the drug can be absorbed quickly and cause a rapid rise in blood concentration. It is also dangerous to feed adult drugs with temporary measures just because there is no analgesic for pediatric use. Acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol), widely used as an antipyretic analgesic, is a prescription-prohibited medication for children under 12 years of age, and may cause hypothermia if a sustained-release acetaminophen is used to slowly release the drug.

To give liquid drugs, use a spoon or cup with an accurate measuring mark. For small doses, oral syringes may be helpful. If there is medicine left in the container, feed it again with water.

Caution : Most pediatric medicines are in the form of suspension, which means the particles are not dissolved, so taking the medicine without mixing it properly may cause the drug efficacy to be lower than expected or cause unexpected toxicity.

In case of powdered drugs, melt it with a little water and sugar before use. Feeding with syrup or feeding on juice is also a good idea. If your child doesn't like it, suggest that they naturally take their breath in and swallow the medicine by gently holding the nose and letting the medicine flow into the mouth.

Caution : Unless it is a newborn baby, it is better to refrain from feeding the medicine in milk. The child may be disgusted by the milk's taste, and the rubber pacifier can clog up with the medicine left in the milk bottle. When you feed with pinching

In case of children under 3 years old, grasp the lower part of the auricle and pull it a little while pushing the indicated amount downward, and in case of children over three years, pull the upper part of the pinna and pull the medicine upward. It is helpful to lay the child on its side so that the medicines can get through well.

Caution : When cold ear-medicines come in suddenly, it may cause the capillaries to shrink and cause dizziness. Therefore, it is recommended that the vial be kept warm.

Since a child’s skin is thinner than the adult's, their skin absorbs very rapidly when applied topically. Therefore, thinly spread a small amount only on the injured area and avoid around the eyes, nose and mouth..

Caution : As soon as you apply cream or ointment, avoid putting a band-aid on it or filling it with diapers. If the ointment is not sufficiently absorbed and the skin temperature rises, the rate of absorption of the drug may increase and stimulate the skin. It is advisable to consult with an expert about the period of use, frequency and amount applied.

For children who do not like to take a pill, suppositories may be a solution, but they may have a sense of rejection, so I recommend you to use them in their sleep. Place the suppository with vinyl gloves for household use, pushing from the pointed part to the anus for 4 to 5 seconds. When using only half of the medicine, cut it with a knife, and then smoothen the sharp part with your hand or put it in water. Then gently push the groin and hips so that the medicine does not come out. When the suppository is not hard, put it in the refrigerator for packing and then use it after hardening.

Caution : You can use antiseptic as a suppurant for your child. Do not insert it continuously as it does not fall down. It should be used at least every 4 hours. It is important that suppositories are inserted after bowel movement so that they do not come out.
