When could you swallow your anti reflux medicine? I have omeprazole 40 mg, currently I open the capsule and sprinkle over my crushed ice pop. It's a rather large capsule. Thanks

They have a 'melt in your mouth' version. I was advised to crush/sprinke anything larger than a tic-tac between day 30 and 90.

But after week 1 I (was a lucky one) had no trouble swallowing ANY pills including the PPI.

I started taking whole 40 mg omeprazole the day after surgery (per my surgeon's instructions) and never had a problem.
