Grace also hates panadol and will spit it out (and that's only if we even get a chance to get it in), but she will happily take nurofen...i figure it mustn't taste as foul. I don't give it to her very often so i figure nurofen is ok occasionally. Although if panadol was really needed i would probably be getting suppositories for ease of use, they wouldn't even notice during a nappy change.
