Yes it will. The coating is not part of the treatment! We had to do this for our son when he was a wee boy all those years ago.
If these are capsules then you can open and mix it with yougurt or similar thing and discard the capsule shell - it will work.
It also comes as liquid - perhaps you can request the doctor to prescribe it again with liquid form saying he can't swallow capsules / tablets?
Not what you're looking for?
