Equate Children's Dosing Syringe, 10 mL

This dispenser is great to have on hand for giving medicine. My 4 year old still will not willingly take any type of medicine. We have to resort to this syringe style to get the medicine in her. This one was easy to use, had clear measurement labels, and was also easy to clean. Overall it's great to keep on hand.

This is such a smart device. This dropper is designed in such a way to prevent accidental overdose and guarantee precise dosing. Medicine cups can sometimes be difficult to read and large mouthed bottles can easily allow too much to quickly pour out. This dropper requires you to select the exact dosage you need: .5 tsp, 1 tsp, 1.5 tsp, and 2 tsp. (Metric measurements are printed on the clear plastic dropper, but not on the top dial). Shelf-like barriers on the shaft of the plunger cause the dropper to stop at the exact amount selected as you draw the medicine into the dropper. To clean the dropper, simply turn the orange safety-stop lid to unscrew and slide the plunger out of the dropper. The orange lid cannot be removed, and though it can make it slightly more awkward to clean, it cannot be lost, and the lid is essential to how this syringe works. This is a smart design for an important medical tool. I highly recommend!

I really love this medicine syringe. It is almost full proof with the dosage so it will be nice when I am in a hurry. Easy to read. And has quite a few different dosages. I would definitely recommend for a parent. I suppose you could use it for pets as well.

So I have to say, why wasn't this a thing a long time ago???? Best thing ever invented for giving liquid medicines. It takes the guess work out of the syringe if you put too much in or too little. On this bad boy, you pick between the 4 options, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 ml and turn the dial on the puller of the syringe and when you go to get your medicine out, it comes out on that setting!! Inside has a stopper to prevent you from getting too much out. No more guess work! I love these and plan on getting one for my sister and my parents. I don't highly recommend!

This Equate Children's Medical Dosing Oral Syringe is so convenient and easy to use! I absolutely love the guided measurement system. I have 6 children and this makes sure I get the proper dosage for each of my young children. The base shows the measurement dose and you just turn it until it is pointing to the arrow and then draw the medicine up. It stops once it reaches the selected dosage. Then administer and rinse and clean it. It is so simple and accurate. I would definitely recommend this item!

As a parent of three children, I am very familiar with who is trying to find the medicine dropper that came with the medicines before this dropper is great to have on hand for medicines for children and adults like for my have a difficult time drinking from the medicine cups it’s bright and colorful design makes it easy to spot amongst other utensils in the kitchen!

This handy children's dosing plastic syringe comes with an orange safety stop which accurately locks at a precise dose as you suction in the liquid medicine/vitamin. You just need to turn it to the right color coded dial- it has four dials and ranges from from 0.5 tsp to 2 tsp or 2.5ml to 10ml. This syringe is well made, easy to use, and perfect for all of your medicines and vitamins for baby to big kid. I don't have to worry about giving my babies too much or wasting the medicine now. Happy I can use this for both my newborn and 6yo. Wished I had this sooner!

I never realized that you could purchase these separately. We always kept the ones that came with the medicine. The issue is those are three milliliters or five milliliters and we are needing to dose out more. My autistic daughter isn't able to drink from a dosing cup so we have to use the syringe. This one is unique as you can set it for one of four doses. This makes getting the correct amount easier and faster. The measurements are easy to read and the syringe is easy to clean.

This is a really cool concept. Wish they had it when my little ones were babies. It is easy to use once you figure out how it works. It basically has a stopper. You twist the colored top to the arrow on the amount you want then you can pull it up and it will stop at that amount so it is the perfect amount every time. It is handy so that you're not getting too much or not enough. Only issue is if you need an amount other than the four options.

I'm pretty disappointed they changed the design. I use this for giving my kids their oral medicine, like Tylenol and advil. All their medicine bottles list their doses in mL and that is what used to be on the syringe. (Some of the pictures for this item in the description still show the old design) Now they changed it so it only shows the measurement is teaspoons. Luckily I know how to convert teaspoons to milliliters but I really doubt the average customer is going to know that. It will cause confusion and possibly mis-dosing. Also, it's the standard for medical measurements to include a zero before a decimal place when measuring less than one. So, 1/2 teaspoon should be written 0.5 Equate put .5 on their device and the decimal point is so tiny as to be missed by people like me with poor vision. My child's dose is 5 mL. Do you think the average person's eye is going to go towards the .5 on the measurement or the 1? (Hint, the correct dose would be 1 tsp which equals 5mL) Badly done equate. Horrible, horrible design change.
