alex gets his twice daily seizure pills in a very small glob of chunky peanut butter, he won't pick the pill out of the glob that way. when i'm out of PB, i break a small piece of banana, about 1/2 inch, press the pills to one side, then in a happy cheerful, excited voice, call "pills and treats! who wants pills and treats?" the pill bearing end goes down first. i've also used a teeny glob of apple sauce. hope this helps.
