Hi, Connie,
 
Keith and I have eight ferts, so we've been through giving some really
awful tasting meds to ferts.
 
One thing that might make them more palatable is to go to a compounding
pharmacy and have the meds mixed with flavoring.  Vanilla or banana usually
works well.  IME, ferts hate the coconut flavor many pharmacies have.
 
Also, we give the meds with a syringe, and scruff the fuzzy and give it
then.  They may not like it, but they swallow their meds.  We also
immediately give them a Linatone chaser, and that seems to make all the
difference in the world.
 
Good luck!
Caity Martin
