I am 2 months out and have always swallowed my pills. I take about 12 aday and have split them 6 in the morning and 6 at night. If i try 1 or 2 at a time with liquid I get to full and vomit, so i have to take all of them at the same time and a drink. I dont break any of mine. I just have to make sure I dont have a stomach full of food.:laugh0:

You can go to the pharmacy and buy a pill splitter. The one smaller than the m&m you can take. When I was having the BP problems Campos called me and told me I could take it whole. It was not very large. He said to be sure to drink a lot after it. I think they were worried about it getting stuck in the esophogus (?)

They are all the size of or smaller than an m&m and I am not having any problems the majority of the time swallowing anything so maybe tomorrow morning I will try them whole ... does this mean I could go back to my effexor XR which is a capsule? ANYONE KNOW? That would be a wonderful thing as I only have to take it 1x a day ... that would give me just 4 pills to take daily

I took capsules right off the bat. I was able to drink a lot of Water right from the beginning. I think it would be a problem if you are one of the people that have to take little tiny sips of water.

No, I can take large enough swigs to get a pill down. It's funny to me how I switch from warm things tasting the best, to now wanting things as cold as I can get them. Did you do that?

I got used to drinking things at room temp. when I had the band, so now I seem to prefer that. I can drink really cold things though, but with the band, I could not.
