DrKids Children’s Pain and Fever Gummy Bite - Chewable Acetaminophen for Kids Ages 2-11, Pre-Measured Soft Chews for Headache, Sore Throat, Cold and Flu, Orange Vanilla Flavor, 24 Count (Pack of 1)

First and foremost, my son is 5 and WILL NOT TAKE MEDICINE. If he lost an arm and there was medication to make it grow back, he still would refuse to take it. I have tried everything humanly possible. Liquids, disguising the liquids in a drink, having him hold his nose, chewables, dissolving packs, and bribing him with money or toys lol. Nothing worked. By some sort of insane luck, he’s never been sick with something that required medication since he was a baby. However, that meant he remained miserable so many times from headaches, fevers, and pain when medicine would have made him feel better. He suffered through sickness so many times and I felt so hopeless and helpless.Then I found these. He does take daily gummy vitamins and I told him they make medicine gummies. He said he would take them if they were gummies. Tonight we needed to try them for the first time since he had a headache and a fever. There was so much pushback at first but I made him wear a fever cooling patch to bed which annoyed him. He asked if he could take it off if he took medicine and I said yes. Weight wise, he needed 3 of these. He ate all 3 of them with a quick break between each just to take a sip of a drink. I’m not religious but HALLELUJAH!!!! He said they were just a “little bit sour” but he would take them again. (They’re really not sour but that’s how he describes something when it tastes a little “different”)As far as the taste and smell go, I made sure to try one myself so I knew the probability of him taking them. They smell just like an orange creamsicle! Taste wise, they taste like an orange creamsicle with a small acetaminophen after taste—not terrible at all, but not completely “medicine free” tasting. I have had way worse gummies lolThe cost is kind of pricey for the amount of doses (we could get 8 doses from the bottle), but when you have a child who refuses everything else, it is beyond worth it! Knowing that he can finally get some relief when he doesn’t feel well makes me the happiest parent in the world! Every parent hates when their child is sick, but it does make us feel better when we know they are able to take something for relief.My son is the pickiest of the picky. If he will eat them, I think every other child on earth will too!

Just got today haven’t even opened the bottle and noticed it expires in a month. Bought it for my 2yr old bottle has 12 servings (24 gummies per bottle) as per the directions must take 2 and noticed the expiration date to be in a month from now for 15 dollars I’d expect to have at least a couple months use out of it as my child does not get sick often. Not good not good at all

The greatest investment ever!! Im not fighting with my toddler to take tylenol when she's sick and still works like a charm <3

Melted together when I got them and what I did give my kid didn't really change anything like liquid Tylenol does. Not really any bang for your buck with these.

We don't struggle at all with our 3 year old taking them.

These gummies have a horrible taste and texture. Bad after taste too. I tried one after my son refused to eat it and now I know why. I had to spit it out and wash my mouth out. I wish I could get a refund on this item.

I have a 3 year old who has always refused medication. I have tried everything from chewables to liquids and my toddler just absolutely refuses. I was very excited that I had come across Dr. Kids fever gummies since my toddler likes eating gummy multivitamins since to her she is just eating candy. However as soon as I put a piece of the Dr. Kids fever gummy in her mouth she spat it out. I was curious why and tried it myself and the taste was just terrible. This was a very creative and great product had it been more tastier for young kids.

I originally bought these because my daughter is obsessed with anything gummy and I thought they would be a way to make medicine a bit more fun.These happened to be in my cabinet when my daughter caught Hand Foot and Mouth Disease. This is a condition that causes blisters in the mouth, so it was important for her to have medication that was soft, as her throat is very sensitive right now. Compared to some of the harder chew type pain medications which she could , this was a godsend. She really liked the texture. She complained it was yucky. I tried a bite and she was absolutely right. You can smell the orange cream, but the medicine taste is the #1 thing you taste. The texture is the only pleasant thing. If the taste can be improved, these will be a hit. Well, at the least, I know at first taste no kids will ever mistake these for candy..
