erint93 12 Posted August 6, 2017 How often after being sleeved did people start swallowing whole pills and how many at a time? Before surgery I could swallow 4 or 5 small-medium sized pills with no issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tenseintexas 182 Posted August 6, 2017 I swallow two at a time now- ( year out) but I have never tried to swallow more than that ever - so not sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Missy161 395 Posted August 7, 2017 Im 6.5 weeks out. They had me swallow my capsules the first thing I swallowed the same day if surgery. I did 3 capsules that day- 1 every 15 min. Now I wait less than a min between my pills and do fine. I haven't ever crushed one- have taken 1 Tylenol once since surgery.Mich WHw 223, SW 217 CW 194 GW 135 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hmills653 365 Posted August 7, 2017 I'm on Omeprazole and that's a pull they started me on after surgery I'll be oon for 3 months. I've taken Tylenol for headache as well but I use the ones that have the little beads inside the pill capsule. They seem to work fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
