We gave it 30 seconds and then checked their mouth to make sure no sneaky "spit it out later" tactics were being employed.

As far as I know they had previously been done and we were just give the follow up doses to give to them. I know we had no problem giving him a tablet the previous week but as for taking a syringe in his mouth. Forget it!!!!!
