Medication question



Recommended Posts

Once you have the band and all the fills, can you take any size pill or does it have to be very small or liquid?

Also once you are banded, how much Water can you drink at one time?

I haven't had a fill yet, but after 2 weeks I could take my smaller pills... and now after 4 weeks I can take all of my pills without crushing them. I assume that after a fill I will have to crush again for a few days until the swelling goes down. I can drink easily too as long as my stomach is empty...

I've never crushed pills. I did have to go from regular Calcium to chewables, regular ones hurt going down. Other large pills don't bother me at all.
