You may not agree, BUT, I think all meds should taste like HELL. Dogs etc.

    OR, at least, be able to order them that way.

    I am talking about dogs. They come right in, and sample anything. and I want it to make them spit it out. I don't want CHEWABLES, tooti fruiti or any other flavor but YEKKKKKKKKKKzxthhhhhhhhh.

    I think this would save quite a few pets, if not CHILDREN. A certain sloppy as hell person drops pills all the time with the power to KILL any dog that ingests them.

    What say you?

    I think you will have a lot of kids who die because they won't take their bad-tasting meds....... Probably more than would be saved.


    I'm not too concerned about dogs. Their owners need to worry about that.

    I am more concerned about my Dog, he is very sweet to me.

    You, I ain't concerned much, if you eat pills you find on the floor, it is your own look out.

    Sounds like trading more oppressive government regulation for personal responsibility, to me.

    It is your responsibility to keep your pills out of the reach of dogs or children, suicidal people, etc.

    What did they used to do before in the old days when medicine did taste bad. Their parents made them take it, or you could always mix it with food or drink I suppose.

    That sounds easy, till you are talking about an elderly person, that STATES categorically, that he will no longer care aobut doing Anything with any care AT ALL.

    Dogs are INNOCENT.

    Well then if they are too old to be responsible with their medications, then they are too old to be living by themselves.

    You didn't even get my point. Your last statement was just stupid, and had nothing to do with the subject. I'm not worried about my own safety, and I have taken pretty bitter pills. I've owned dogs most of my life, and never has a dog ever gotten into pills on the floor. The OP's point, therefore, is stupid. It assumes that dog life is more important than human life, and it assumes that people are stupid enough to leave drugs where dogs can get to them.

    And a lot more kids died of disease in the old days than die today from disease (per capita). I'd rather have dogs die from eating good tasting medicine than kids dying from not taking medicine.

    Dogs are just animals. Human life is more important than animal life.

    Well, I think the main reason why a lot of people died in the old days is because they did not have antibiotics back then. In the times when my grandmother was growing up, they didn't have Tuti Fruity flavored medicine, and she did just fine. :)
