JosieR 2 Posted August 20, 2016 Im having trouble taking omeprazole and my lexapro. Help??? Sent from my SM-G900P using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moogle 116 Posted August 20, 2016 The liquid omeprazole was rough. Only way I could get it down (it seriously made me gag) was to take half a dose and chase it with a sip of crystal light, wait a few minutes and then do the other half. Once I could handle a little more liquid at a time I would do the whole thing at once with the "chaser". The day I got moved to pills I switched from liquid and haven't looked back. Sorry I can't give you any advice on the other medicine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Djmohr 6,965 Posted August 20, 2016 I had capsules and had to open them and put them in a spoon of yogurt. It still tasted like crap but it was better than trying to use a sip of Water. Thank goodness they stopped having me take them one month post op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
