Liquid medicine help

I have a three month old and I’m struggling with giving her liquid Tylenol. I idk know they make Tylenol suppositories but she isn’t old enough yet. We have done the route of put it in her bottle but sometimes she needs it before a feed or after.(especially with teething) Can you thicken liquid medicine? We currently use gelmix. I have asked the pediatrician, GI doctor, pharmacists. No one really has an answer besides put it in the bottle or have I tried putting gelmix in it. Please help with suggestions for me to look into. Thank you

Gelmix help plz!

We are on honey thick consistency level three. I need help with night bottles and pre making bottles. Has anyone had success on premaking it and leaving it at room temp? If so what did you do? I trialed some ratios yesterday then tested it with IDDSI. No luck. Please help

Gelmix

We had a swallow study done and found out we need to thicken liquids to honey thick. I would like to batch prep it or at least make night bottles. What is the best way to do this without it getting too thick? She takes room temp bottles.

We just got moved to hypoallergenic formula. It’s thinner than what we were on. We were using Dr brown one nipples. It seems too fast but preemie seems to frustrate her. We have tried t but it seems a little slow too. Right now feeding is frustrating her and us. I reached out to lactation for assistance and was just told it shouldn’t make a difference with nipple size.
