How Long Did you have to crush your meds?

[brians34 31]

My NUT and nurse practitioner has me crushing meds for 6 weeks.

I find it very hard to tollerate.

Nurse practitioner said not to mix with applesauce or Peanut Butter, that I can mix with soft Proteins.< /p>

I'm wondering how long your doctor had you crushing meds.

I was instructed to do it for at least 90 days, longer if the pills are unusually large. I normally mix with a spoonful of yogurt, it seems to hide the flavor well. For something really unpleasant tasting, I use tabasco sauce. I love that stuff anyway!

6 weeks and I hid mine in almond butter.

I only did it for a little over 1 month, I was instructed to do it for 2 months but once I was eating real food I started taking them normally. I did not crush them but broke/cut them into smaller pieces, my doctors allowed me to do this.

My surgeon told me I could stop crushing at my 2 week post-op appointment. Of course, he knew all my meds were small gelcaps so that may or may not have had something to do with it. Still though.. best day ever.

I was told one month. I mixed mine with sugar free pudding.< /p>
