I started an antibiotic today and it got STUCK!!! I thought the capsule was small enough to go through but I was soooo wrong. Anyone have any tips on how to help it pass? I've tried raising my arms and sipping a lil pineapple juice but so far nothing. I obviously can't take those so I'll have to call my doc for something else.:help::help:

Yea, I would try sipping warm Water. It should dissolve the capsule if nothing else.

I take all medication with warm Water. I take one, drink a lot of warm water, wait a few minutes and take another one. I have a lot of stuff I have to take. It takes a long time. I take some in the morning, some with lunch and some more in the evening, about an hour before bedtime.

Chubbydiva,

If you are still having problems, just give your Dr a call and they can order it for in liquid form. I had the same problem and got the liquid. Good luck, you are on your way !!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
