I found the best way to give medicine to my children when they were toddlers was to use a dropper, gently prod the child's mouth open, slide the dropper to the outside of the back teeth (on the inside of the cheek) and squeeze the medicine out. Somehow it seems to work better than trying to get them to swallow it from a cup or spoon because it doesn't suddenly hit the back of the throat.

∙ 11y agoYou get medicine for said 4 month old child in an oral sugar/syrup suspension, measure correctly using the spoon provided and give it to your child.
In case your infant spits the medication out with the aforementioned method, I have an alternate suggestion.
Use an oral syringe. (Or dropper provided w/an OTC). After carefully measuring the correct dosage, place the syringe (or dropper) against the infants cheek toward the back of the mouth. Administer a small bolus, several times until the full dose has been swallowed.

Vitamins can be a great way to keep your toddler healthy as long as you give him or her vitamins that are made specifically for children of that age. Feeding a toddler vitamins designed for adults is not safe, because the dosages are larger.
