Best-smelling liquid meds!

Published

Is it just me, or does anyone else think Lactulose smells really good? Just wondering....;)

actually...worst smelling is metformin (riomet). The tablets smell even worse...if you ever get the opportunity to smell a bottle of them...dont take a big whiff!

Omnicef suspension= strawberries! Mmmmm.

Erythro suspension (and tablets!)= vanilla Mmmmm.

Spironolactone tabs=peppermint

But my favorite thing to smell is Chewable Amox400mg tabs...they smell like they would taste EXACTLY like strawberry pop-rocks!

I think the IV morphine we use at our hospital smells like gin.

MMM I used to love the amoxicillin i got as a kid, it came in little single dose bottles as a powder and you added water and shook. So tasty!

Also, if you've ever sucked on an advil before swallowing it, they're like skittles!

I love the smell of liquid APAP and/or Motrin, and pretty much any oral Abx suspension.

Gotta go with the strawberry-flavored Amoxil, and bubblegum flavored APAP.

I can't get the horrid smell of IV ampicillin out of my nose at the end of the day....

Intralipids smell greasy to me, sometimes gross me out...

Lactulose is.. not what I would smell all day if I could. But that's just me.

The smell of Maalox is what I consider pleasant. :-)

Mucomyst is probably the worst. Blech.
