Ok since so many of us are taking such god awful pills and most with terrible taste, what flavor would you turn those meds into if you could?
Mine would be margarita flavored--definately.

Good question- not only are they nasty tasting-but sometimes they get stuck. ! I've also had the not so pleasant experience of the antibiotic taste burp back up in my mouth.
So if I had to choose a flavor to regurgitate it would be-pina colada.

I'm voting for anything ice cream or chocolate flavored. Better yet, chocolate ice cream.
You know how Ben & Jerry's sometimes comes up with funny names for their ice creams? Maybe we can submit a few of our own.
How about:
DoxycyCream BiaxCinnamon TinadaMaximum Chocolate
Any other ideas?

(To this day I don't know what the mepron tastes like and I don't plan to know. I hold my breath when I take it.)
Personally, I feel you can never go wrong with chocolate. Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate. Flavor everything chocolate
How come little kids get their meds flavored but us bigger kids don't?

Actually, you can now add flavoring to certain liquid medications! I know Target pharmacy offers it. Might help to make that Mepron (which is yellow and is the consistency of paint hands down) to actually taste like banana!

How about:
zithromint ice cream mepronarama (make that one banana flavored) diflucandy ice cream
Nancy
Oh I love the Diflucandy idea. Just imagine, combining the anti-yeast properties of Diflucan, with candy-flavored ice cream. That means we could have a sugary treat and kill the yeast - all in one big heapin' spoonful!

I would definitely go for hot fudge flavor on it instead of the current sulfur flavor.
The Shop-Rite Pharmacy by me has Flavor-X. They can add flavors to liquid medications. I had to do this for my daughter's medicines. I wonder if they could do it with that?
Might be worth a shot. Ali

It might help if I finished reading the replies first. Sorry, I got excited.
PS- If they made 'em taste too good, we'd probably just be sitting around sucking on them all day, instead of swallowing them like we're supposed to.
Make mine a nice Latte' or a Mochaccino, please. I guess I'd settle for DoxyLatte' or Doxaccino, for now, or maybe Doxpresso
