Maggie1955 158 Posted December 18, 2017 Hoping you all can answer this question: I am on several meds for chronic conditions like lupus and hypothyroidism. Will I be able to swallow pills post-op? 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catwoman7 11,220 Posted December 18, 2017 I only had problems swallowing one of my pills - and after a couple of weeks, I could swallow that one as well. 2 Maggie1955 and FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Creekimp13 5,840 Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) Just get a pill crusher, and sprinkle the powder on a spoon full of sugar free Cool Whip. Down the hatch! Easy peasy. PS...you shouldn't do this with extended release kinda pills...ask the doc about those:) Edited December 18, 2017 by Creekimp13 1 Maggie1955 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigAussieGirl 162 Posted December 19, 2017 I'm on medication for seizures and bipolar. My Doc's didn't want me to miss any of my medication. I took them the morning off my surgery with a tiny sip or Water and then the following morning the medication was cut in half for me. No problems taking them. Good luck!
