    Maybe try a little cup instead of syringe?

    For nurofen and panadol you may find it easier to get the next strength up so you give a much smaller actual volume of dose (still giving the mg of active ingredient appropriate for her weight or age).
    This is one battle that isn't negotiable - you need to win, whatever it takes.

    Other option might be to mix it with a little bit of juice to drink perhaps? Juice is a treat for my DS so he'd gulp it down - would something like that work?
