| Taste Test | Drug | Before the taste test each participant will fill out an informed consent form and an enrollment survey. Each participant will receive 0.5 mL of each study medication in the taste test. During the taste test each medication in a class will be labeled with a color name so as to prevent any bias from preconceived taste perception. They will record their perception of the medications taste on a visual analog scale (VAS). An anaphlyaxis kit will be on hand in case of emergencies. Between samples participants will cleanse their palate with a saltine cracker and 30 mL of water. 5 different classes of medications will be tested. Medications to be sampled and the corresponding dose of the test dose are:
