Together, we can bring flavoring back to pharmacies in California.
Because of a Board of Pharmacy regulatory shift, thousands of pharmacies across California stopped flavoring children’s medications on November 1, 2023.
AB 3063 will fix the problem so California’s pharmacies can get back to helping children take their medicine.

Here's What Parents Are Saying
“Without the option to add a flavor that my son would enjoy to his liquid prescription, we wouldn’t even be able to consider him taking it. With watermelon as an option, we have a winner + medicine time isn’t a battle. Thank you!!!”
– Deena C.
“My daughter is 6 months old and has severe epilepsy. We have done everything to get her to take her medicine, and the only thing that has worked is FLAVORx.”
– Elizabeth G.
“We have a daughter who hates to take Omnicef & the pharmacy offered for us to flavor it with Strawberry & she didn’t hesitate after the first taste. She loved it. I was so excited to finally get her to take medicine without a fight! As a mother it’s so hard to get her to take medicine & having the option of this Flavor Rx at our pharmacy is awesome!
– Meredith G.
“My daughter was having awful night terrors and anxiety. Was placed on a medication to help with this and it did work magically! However my 8 year old daughter stated the medicine tasted like ‘vomit.’ Her words, not mine. I decided to switch our script to a pharmacy that does the flavors for liquid medicine. No complaints since and she takes it without any issues every day now!”
– Leanne G.
“Watermelon makes all the difference in the world in getting my sons levocarnitine liquid down! At first, we did not know you could flavor it. Ever since it has made it so much easier for him to take his medicine! Thanks FLAVORx!!”
– John H.
“We have struggled with ear infections my sons whole life. He is four now. Every time he has to take an antibiotic, it’s always a struggle. He hates the taste of every medicine but finally we have found something that makes it easy and OK for him to take! Instead of tears and chasing him around the house, he REMINDS us to take his medicine. So thankful for flavorX!”
– Amy B.
