i know how you feel man. I am fighting a lung infection and the antibiotics are huge. I can barely get a coated advil down. I've done four so far but the last two i had to crush up and it is beyond horrible.

I put this up partly so people in your situation wouldn't feel so alone. It's a real drag. Sometimes I can get stuff down, but the antibiotics I was taking when I made the video just wouldn't go. Good luck!

Making the pill into powder takes away some of the effects of a pill because its supposed to break down inside you

Wow I'm not he only one.

What i do is powder the pill then put it on a spoon. Wet my tongue with water then pour the powder on my tongue and quickly gulp it down. The powder is in small bits easy to swallow. And it doesn't leave a taste behind cuz i don't chew it.

I've tried swallowing but I can't. My family can swallow tablets apart from me.

How pathetic.

@caithiseach Put the pill. on your lungs, and drink with water.

I'm 12 and I hate the fact of swallowing pills. I have Alopecia and the pills I have to take will help my hair grow back but I can't take them because I'm scared of big pills getting stuck in my throat and I can taste it when it's on my tongue. I've tried powdering it and putting it in my food, cutting it in half and doing what you did but I can't take it without vomitting. Whenever I put the pill close to my throat I instantly feel the need to vomit. My pills are bigger than yours are :(

I'm glad I'm not the only person out there.

I have a fear of swallowing pills too, mental block can't do it. What we should all do is protest pills and demand that everything be made in an alternative way too! I mean humans are smart right? Why can't we come up with a different way to take medicine that will save our lives!
