Candy Medication

** "Candy Medication" by Bernard Fantus is a turn-of-the-century scientific exploration into a novel method of giving medicine to children: sweet tablets or candies. It begins by examining the history of blending medicine with sweets, reaching back to ancient practices, and explains the author's reasons for looking at this approach, highlighting the difficulties kids have with regular liquid medicines. The main idea is that kids will be less scared and unwilling to take medicine if it comes in the form of tasty, appealing candy. The publication emphasizes the importance of a standard recipe book for these medications, so doctors and pharmacists can easily use the method. **
