Sippy Sure® is a great new way to help children take medicine!

Sippy Sure® is the world’s first medicine dispensing sippy cup. Its patented design creates a spill and leak proof cup that keeps medicine and your child’s favorite drink separate until they are ready to drink. As the child drinks from the cup, the medicine is mixed with the drink concealing the medicine and easily giving the child their medicine. Sippy Sure® helps make giving medicine to children easier and with less stress and frustration.

Sippy Sure® was developed by a doctor and dad so it is the solution to giving medicine to your child you can trust. We understand how difficult it can be sometimes because we have been there too.

I have a small daughter, and have taken my young daughter to her doctor in a panic more than once because I couldn't get her fever to go down. I have found an important tool to help me and it is also the answer to the problem you describe in your blog. It's called the Pediatric Fever Fighter card, and it gives parents the information you don't get on the box of your medication of choice (which is based on age ranges and not weight). It's the information the ER doctor will give you on a piece of paper when you visit at 2am, but its nothing you are told before then. I guess everyone should check with their child's doctor first, but this card should be in everyone's medicine cabinet as well. Here is the link to the product's website for you and your readers:
