I Have A Question



Recommended Posts

As Missy stated, check with your doctor or pharmacist to make sure you can cut or crush your pill. As for me, my blood pressure pill is rather large. Post surgery, I cut it into 4 pieces and had no issues, as time went on I cut it in half only. I take it whole now with no issue. Most likely you will be able to cut your pill.

I take lots of meds how do y'all take them crushed I just can't imagine to crush it n how do I swallow it! They tast nest! Any suggestions ??

Great question! I also needed to know. Can you mix it in yogurt or applesauce? Not sure if you can eat that now. My Dr. told me to cut them in petite sizes. Hope that helps!

I had been opening my big capsule and putting it into applesauce (per instructions). When I went for my fill last week, my Dr. told me to try just swallowing it whole. I haven't had a problem yet!

I am 5 months out and I take mine whole now. Some of my prescriptions I was able to get in liquid form after speaking with my PCP.

Can you take them later in the day? Sometimes depending on the size of pill, I can't take it in the mornings. But later as your band relaxes a bit, it's easier to take pills.< /p>
