Hello. I am five days post op today and I was wondering if anyone has tried to take their pills crushed into their Protein shake? I have been trying to get down one pill crushed in applesauce, thin creamed wheat, and the like with no luck. This morning I broke down and ground it up along with another (both blood pressure meds), then mixed it in with a double scoop of Protein powder with Water. While there is a little hint of an after taste it is SO SO SO much more palatable. Does anyone see an issue doing this? Could this cause other issues I can not think of? Thoughts/etc? Thank you, Ben

Thank you all for the replies. I did check with my PCP and pharmacist in advance and the pills are able to be crushed (in fact that is how they were doing it in the hospital the day after surgery (in warm applesauce. YUCK). I was more wondering if anyone had ever had an issue with taking them in liquid though. So far, it went down easy and did not taste bad. I agree and hope in time to get off the horse pill sooner than latery actually. Thank you again, Ben
