mindyemt08 0 Posted March 23, 2008 I am 2 months post op and have no problems with crushing my pills and drinking them with coffee. However, I purchased a "Complete Body Cleansing Program" and the pill taste is HORRIBLE. You have no idea. They are also of course big horse pills. Would these be safe to swallow whole? Thanks a bunch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted March 23, 2008 It's safe to take any pills whole providing you can get them down. It depends on your restriction. If you are very tight, it's hard to get big pills down. I have some big capsules that I have to take, and they can't be crushed. I take them with hot Water. Hot water opens the band. I can feel if they are stuck. If they are, I keep drinking hot water until I can feel them pass through. Hope that helps! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
