I found this bottle on clearance at Walmart for $1.00 and I bought 2 of them. Recently my 8 month old son has needed 4ml of amoxicillin 3 times a day. This bottle is a blessing. We don’t have to fight with him or worry about him spitting it out and not getting his full dose.

He actually sucks so hard that we don’t have to push the syringe. He sucks so hard it just goes in on it’s own.

Oh and I figured out how to get the small amount left in the nipple out- once the syringe is completely empty, pull it out of the bottle, then whatever medicine is left in the nipple will get sucked out by the baby.

This is a lifesaver for us. Our now eight month old daughter has to take steroids. At 5 months she hated the taste of the medicine and it was always a struggle getting her to even open her mouth and then most of it ended up on her or us. Since we got the ReliaDose she takes her medicine without a fight even if we just put water in it. We are on our second bottle because the numbers wore off on the syringe but we’ve used it twice a day everyday.

I have one of these. My almost-2-year-old who has NEVER used a bottle (I breastfeed) had NO problem with this. He needed antibiotics and REFUSED to take them without a HUGE fight before we tried this product.

With this product, he drank the liquid in the bottle while I squirted the medicine in and he never even realized there was any medicine IN it.

As for “flow control” – the parent/guardian administering the medicine controls the flow of the medicine; it is not automatic. I just pushed the plunger a little at a time and in seconds, the medicine was down him and he finished the remainder of the liquid at his leisure.

For that last little bit, if, while baby is sucking, you disconnect the syringe just for a second, then reconnect, it ‘releases’ that last bit so baby can suck it down with the liquid, in my experience
