I can't swallow a pill?

[Anonymous]

When I get antibiotics I can never swallow a pill and some perscriptions don't come in liquid form. So today I had to get a perscription for some skin treatment pills. I'm supposed to take them until my servere acne goes away which can take months. I tried for a while to swallow just one pill and it just won't go down. Any tricks on how I can take a pill easily?

I have the same problem😿 usually I tilt my head back with my mouth open and get my mother to drop it down so it goes straight down my throat and ye my eyes usually water but it's the easiest way to take tablets for me😕 however if I am on my own then I just get a glass of water, put the tablet in my mouth and keep swollowing the drink until the tablet goes down with the drink, I don't know if this helps but best of luck☺x

Thanks for telling me this but the capsule always gets stuck at the back of my mouth and I just can't swallow it. I have tried almost every way that claims to be the easy way of talking them but it just doesn't work. So I asked my doctor if they had tablets in the same perscription and they said I can get them Monday. I will try to take those, hopefully they are easier than a capsule.

Same for me. I just can't swallow a pill. I don't have tips but I feel you.

Drink some water. This wets your throat, now put the pill in your mouth and drink some more water and swallow the pill with the water. This works best. I take a vitamin and it almost kills me half the time if I don't do this. lol

Drink milk with it. That's how I learned, it's much thicker than what and gets your mind off of it.
