Hi all,

Any advice on the best ways to get it down? It took me a long time to swallow pills as a kid, so I have had some pretty nasty liquid meds, but this has to take the cake!

Right now I am just swallowing and following up with a big chug of milk (and eating obviously).

Anyone have a special way they take theirs to lessen the blow? Beer bong??

Beer bong, that's great.

But not enough fat. Maybe a pina colada bong?

I ate Monterey Jack jalepeno cheese right after it. Or potstickers with really spicy sauce. Or try sushi with wasabi sauce before and after (but don't forget to eat enough fat).

But overall -- nope, it's yellow snot and there's nothing you can do about it. Worked great for me, though.

Take the artemesinin too, it really seems to contribute to overall effectiveness.

I take it after a full meal and quickly/immediately wash it down with loads of water, so I don't even taste it really.

I take mine followed by a spoonfull of either flax oil, olive oil or nut butter & a meal of course.

LOL LOL Wink9.

I think the price bothers me a lot more than the taste.

I think mepron tastes good. And so does my 4 year old. She was 3 when she started it and took it for 6 months. We took it with our meal or with a glass of milk. Ice cream is a good one too.

Oh, I would give it to her in a syringe.

I just had her rechecked for babesia. Waiting for results. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

I liked the taste.

But I did chug alot of water down with it. And somethign fatty, or it won't be absorbed.
