Capsule medications



Recommended Posts

I have a quick question, I seem to have come down w/a sinus infection this week. I have some decongestion medication that was prescribed to me before my lap-band surgery in March 07, it is a capsule w/the little beads in it. Has anyone tried to swallow meds like that?? Im just scared it might get stuck. Any help is appreciated! By the way, I just hit 50lb lost today! YEAH...:whoo:

I swallow capsules all the time. I use warm Water and make sure to drink a lot of it while taking the capsule.

Just remember that anything warm opens the band. I take

all my medications with warm Water and lots of it.

It really depends on the person.. my neighbor has a hard time with any gel pills.... i don't know about the gel pills for myself but i am currently on amoxicillan capsules and they don't bother me as long as i have something lit with it or right after... (like yogurt of something like that)
