medicine question

Does anyone know of a non-flavored, non-sugary iboprofen option? 

Em doesn't like to take it and I think it is just too sweet for her.  We gave her some the other night before bed and she was bouncing off the walls for hours.

Thanks

    I wonder if the chewables would be better?  I prefer them because they're easier to give them.   Walgreens is usually the only place I can find them.  They are grape still.   

    Otherwise, I wonder if PCC or Whole Foods would have anything?

    What about the little melt-away tabs...do they still make those?  Might be worth a shot.  Otherwise, we just give the meds and then a chaser of milk or water.  :)

    I used to high it in some watered down juice (usually orange juice)

    Hiding it isn't your issue though right? It's the actual sugar content that's making her loopy?

    Yeah I think the sugar amps her up.  In addition to the struggle to take it. She doesn't like the flavored toothpastes either.

    I need to actually make it to a drug store and look at the options.  Our doctor also said we could try the meltaway strips.
