Swallowing Pills Whole

[lessofme2010 25]

I was taking all my pills whole the 3 rd day after surgery. The only one I had to cut in half a week later was a Calcium when Istarted taking the.

You should be just fine to take them whole.

Thanks guys,,, I think the worst one is B1-capsules (PURE NASTY)... There is a lot of powder in those little suckers... I have to take a med (forgot the name) for 6 months to prevent gallstones because I still have my gallbladder and want to swallow those too... I have calcium chews but I have to eat six a day to get the amount I need, I would much rather SWALLOW two pills LOL. Im gonna try the smallest med I have... Hopefully it goes down well. (Fingers crossed)

Depends how big they are. If they are capsules then it is hard for your stomach to absorb the outer shell so you do have to put in something. I agree it tastes nasty!!

I was discharged from the hospital 1/25 and had surgery on 1/23... I never experienced trouble swallowing pills. I was actually swallowing pills whole on the 24th. Even now I can take my pills back to back and don't have a problem and my pills range in many different sizes. None of them small
