My dear Emmy has been diagnosed as asthmatic. She is on her second week of oral prednisolone (1.2ml). That stuff must be uber vile. It is getting harder and harder to get it down her. The problem is if I try to wrap her in a towel or even hold her firmly, it restricts her chest and the stress of fighting with me sends her into an asthmatic attack. So, I have just been scruffing her and getting it in her mouth somehow. However, she is fighting it more and more. Yesterday, I had to attempt to give her more as we were both wearing a bit. Any ideas for making it more palatable or a slick way to give liquids. I have no problem with the liquid antibiotic but it is a bit stickier liquid and a smaller volume. No problem with her methimazole pill or the albuterol inhaler (via a chamber). So, it has to be the taste of this stuff.
TIA
Her follow-up is Monday and I am hoping we can taper that off and switch to an inhaled steroid.
