My ten year old doesn’t want liquid or chewable because of the taste and I can’t find any over the counter pills for that age. What do ten year olds take? Same issue with ibuprofen.

Can you cut a pill?
You can get a pill cutter in most pharmacy
( Motrin is easier to cut than advil)
I had that issue as a kid and that is what my pediatrician recommended

A 10 year old can take an adult pill. Regular strength is 325 per pill and a typical 10 year old childs dose is 325mg. So its the same thing

Is that right? Google says 200-300 mg for that age. Also my child is skinny for his age.

A 10 year old can take 1 pill, even a skinny 10 year old.
