Not sure if this is the right forum but my Google-fu is drawing a blank.

Need to get some malaria tablets for my 2.5yr old ahead of a trip to KNP in November. When we were there in January getting her to take a tablet was impossible.

I've been googling for a liquid form of the same medication as (I hope) she'll gulp it down as she does other liquid medicines but not finding anything - we generally mail-order the tablets.

Anybody know if anything or am I resorting to cutting up and hiding them in haribos/Weetabix again (she found them and spat it out last time!!!)
