Rejected petition Make children’s medicines better & easier for them to take
Rejected on
My son has a bad chest and always suffers with chest infections he does get urine infections so he gets given antibiotics a lot for them but it’s such a struggle to get them down him as he gags on the taste spits it out & refuses after to take, I know a few children who refuse to take due to taste
Why was this petition rejected?
It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. The UK Government or Parliament isn't responsible for the taste of children's medicine. This is the responsibility of the manufacturer.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
