More About Timelines

Timelines are estimates, based on our averages and couriers’ commitments. We always aim to get your order to you quicker than this — but they’re not a guarantee. Wherever your order is in the journey, we’ll keep you updated every step of the way.

Returns Made Easy

Unfortunately, we can’t accept returns on this product once it’s been opened. This is usually because:

  • It’s a hygiene or sanitary product
  • It’s single-use
  • It’s a final sale or clearance item

If there’s a defect or fault, though, it’s always covered as a warranty claim.

If the item is still unopened, you can return it within 30 days of receiving it. Just request a return from your account or through our chat, and we’ll handle the rest.

Returns are always free within 7 days. After that, if you’re returning it because you’ve changed your mind, you may need to cover the return cost. You can send it back yourself, or we can arrange a courier and give you an upfront quote — direct from the courier. If your return is for any other reason, it’s free.

Warranty claims are handled directly by the manufacturer or distributor, so we’ll refer you to the right team to get your claim underway. That said, we don’t just hand you off and disappear — we stay involved and follow up from our side to help make sure your claim is resolved promptly.

For most claims, all you’ll need is proof of purchase.

Goes great with ...

  • Paediatrician designed: The Medicator was designed by a paediatrician to help reduce gagging and spitting up during a dose.
  • Pacifier-style dispensing: A medicine-dispensing pacifier lets baby suck as they normally would, making medicine time feel more familiar.
  • Bypasses the taste buds: The design directs medicine past the taste buds, so the chances of spitting are lessened.
  • Controlled flow rate: It dispenses liquid medicine at a flow rate designed to be safe for baby.
  • Mess-free giving: A tidy way to give liquid medicine to infants without the usual struggle and spills.
  • Easy to clean: It's top-rack dishwasher safe, and the nipple can be boiled or steam sterilised between doses.
  • Suitable for all ages: Described as safe for all ages, so it can stay in the cupboard as your baby grows.

Giving a baby liquid medicine can be one of the trickier parts of caring for an unwell little one, especially when they twist, cry or spit it straight back out. The Munchkin Medicator is a paediatrician-designed medicine dispenser built around a familiar pacifier shape, so your baby can suck as they normally would while the medicine is delivered. It's a practical alternative to a standard oral syringe or dropper when you're dealing with a resistant or upset feeder.

The Medicator works as a mess-free liquid medicine dispenser for infants: you draw the medicine into the barrel, and the pacifier-style nipple releases it at a flow rate suited to baby. Because the design is made to bypass the taste buds, the chances of your baby spitting the medicine out are lessened, which can make the whole moment calmer for both of you.

How it works

  • Pacifier-style delivery: The nipple lets baby suck as they usually do, so medicine goes down in a familiar way rather than being squirted into the mouth.
  • Taste-bud bypass: The design directs the liquid to bypass the taste buds, which is intended to lessen the chances of spitting.
  • Controlled flow: It dispenses liquid medicine at a flow rate designed to be safe for baby, so the dose isn't released all at once.

Cleaning and care

The Medicator is top-rack dishwasher safe, and the nipple can be boiled or steam sterilised, so you can keep it clean between doses without fuss.

Best For

The Munchkin Medicator is a great option for parents who:

  • Have a baby who resists or spits out medicine given by spoon, dropper or syringe
  • Want a mess-free way to give liquid medicine using a familiar sucking action
  • Prefer a device that can be sterilised and washed easily between uses

It may not be the best fit if you:

  • Need a device with fine measurement graduations to read a precise volume yourself, as this is a dispensing device rather than a measuring one

Please note

The Medicator is described as safe for all ages, but it is a delivery device and does not set or measure the dose. Always follow the dose and instructions on your medicine's label or from your pharmacist or clinician, and measure the prescribed volume using the device supplied with the medicine where required. Use it with baby upright and supervised, and keep all medicines locked away and out of reach.
