My daughter want take her meds but she's getting sicker .. what do i do?

My two year old daughter has, what they said was just congestions build up, but i plead to think different, because she is complaning with her throat hurting, her nose is constantly running, and she has a AWFUL cough. She also has on top of that a double ear infection. She's taking 3 meds, but one is for if needed for pain. All the meds taste NASTY! Her appetite has completely gone, which her peediatrician said that is normal, to not worry, just let her munch on whatever she will eat, and give her plenty plenty fluids. The only thing I can really get her to eat is apple slices, gs, and oranges, and pretzel sticks. So putting the med in her food is not an option. I've even tried several times putting her meds in her drink but the med is so strong that she knows it's in there and refusses to take it. I've tried talking to her, because she understand its to help her, but she is constantly saying "its nasty mommy/or/daddy" she's tried taking it like a big girl when we first started and the taste literally gagged her. There's no since in shuving it down her throat because she will puke it back up. I'm so worried that she is going to end up in the hospital because her cough has gotten way worse, and she's all the time complaning about her ears. What to do?
