get one of those syringes that you would use to give a baby medicine. It should not have a needle in the tip! It will be blunt. Then look up the tutorials Nancy has mentioned, this is how we fed our girl her medicine. Make sure you monitor his eating for the next while too. Some times they don't want to eat and you will have to force feed him.

He's also eating his food and drinking water. He's just not a fan of fruits and vegetables apparently

Glad you got a safe syringe! Sorry I missed that you had one with a needle (which makes sense if you were injecting it into other foods). Did the vet only give you a needled syringe? Are you definitely supposed to be giving the meds orally and not injected? I can't imagine a vet sending home antibiotic injections, but I'm seriously confused that they would send you home with a needled syringe for oral antibiotics.

Good stuff! I would just continue to give it to him with the new syringe by mouth, that way you can be sure he is getting it all. You could try wrapping him up in a small towel like a burrito so you don't have to scruff him. Personally I have never been a fan of this method, although to be fair I don't know if it is harmful or not. This is just m opinion, not meant as a criticism !
