Shawn Morrison 71 Posted May 3, 2013 I guess it depends on the size of the pill and your doctor. I was taking my blood pressure pill whole the whole time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JennyBeth 127 Posted May 3, 2013 You should be able to take them. My surgeon allowed me to take pills right from the start. I have one capsule that is HUGE and I tried to swallow it and it made me "slime" which was miserable! I haven't tried that one since! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gmanbat 5,889 Posted May 3, 2013 I take capsules but no tabs. Being a tough guy and half nuts I chew the tabs up no matter how bad they taste. Happily, most aren't too bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnlatte 1,232 Posted May 3, 2013 I take what ever I need to take, and have since surgery. My metformin was pretty big so I just broke it in half for a couple of weeks. Never have had a problem taking anything. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
