You should be able to hold the meds with no problem. It is only 1-2 teaspoons. If the taste gags you, have a cup of Water ready to swish and spit right after you take it.

Ooooh I feel your pain....it is SO disgusting! I couldn't do it...they gave it to me in the hospital and I squirted just a ill in my mouth and almost lost it. I was already so nauseated and to try to take that, no way. My poor nurse was laughing and she said she didnt know why they would give it either. I was able to take tiny sips to swallow pills and I was able to get a script for Ultram. I hope you find a way to take it or have them give you something else. :)

I chased it with low sugar apple juice or grape juice and did the hold-my-nose thing. Seemed to work.

I couldn't take the lortab (to many allergies to pain meds) so they put me on rybix 50mg it is tramadol 50mg and is a melt away that taste like mint I really liked it and so easy to take.
