Bambiv 7 Posted August 8, 2012 My doctor told me I have to crush all my meds before I take them. I have tried everything I can think of to put all these nasty crushed pills in to make it easy to swollow like Jello, pudding, yogurt , and a liquid Vitamin. I am having a hard time with this. Does anyone have any suggestions to make this easier. Please help. 1 Cherry reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LosingItForMe2011 320 Posted August 12, 2012 I have to take blood pressure meds and GERD medicine but, the doctor and nurses told me I could cut them in forths to take them. I've been doing that and I've been fine. I bet the choco Syrup works great though. 1 nickster81 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thynnlynn 19 Posted December 24, 2012 Note to Self - Buy SF chocolate syrup! I take a lot of meds and will need to do a lot of cutting and crushing. The chocolate Syrup sounds like the perfect solution to me. :wub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherry 71 Posted April 10, 2013 My surgery is in 1 week so I am having this dilemma at the moment. My dr did tell me I would need to crush mine. I take Neurontin and the pills are on the larger side. I crushed one tonight as a prep and it was a pain to do. Bet it tastes GROSS. So for those who used the SF choc syrup; on what day following surgery did you start? I do not want to miss ONE day of my meds. OK so I guess I will miss a day, but want to start right away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
