An enhanced medicine cup for use with a medicine bottle is disclosed, the medicine cup having a sipping straw running along a sidewall of the cup, the straw enabling a person to easily sip medicine from the bottom of the cup. The sipping straw extends upward beyond the sidewall, having a first opening at its top end, and extends downward along the sidewall, being sealed at its bottom end, and having instead a second opening near its bottom end in its sidewall that is in fluid communication with the inside of the cup via a corresponding opening near the bottom of the cup. Retaining protrusions are provided around the inner surface of the sidewall of the cup that engage with a cooperative ridge on the outer surface of a cap or a neck of a medicine bottle so as to removably retain the enhanced medicine cup on the medicine bottle.
