I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL. I have the same problem with some cough medicine thing. Take it as fast as you can(gulp it), while holding your nose/breath. Follow with a drink nearby to get the taste out of your mouth. For me, plain water doesn't help at all. I like to take it with something fizzy(like sprite) or even milk, and it takes the taste out for me. Hope this helps you out!

Maybe you can find out if they make it in a pill form so you don't have to swallow it [edit - obviously you would still have to swallow the pill but you wouldn't have to taste it like liquid]. If you truly pinch your nose closed - you really should not be able to taste it - continue to hold it until after you drink it and then swish your mouth with listerine before you breathe again. But also the pharmacy sells flavoring that might help - ask at the pharmacy counter or just google "medication flavorings" - you'll probably have to use a lot but it will likely help.
