I can't swallow pills. Help!?!

Put it in the back of your throat and chug a big cup of water...that's how I learned....I'm 18 and I still do it like that.... Some pulls are easier than others

Try putting it in a piece of bread roll it up and eat it

Some say putting it under your tongue and chugging water works

Whatever you do never crush your pills and mix them with any flavored drink. It Tastes crappy itll make you throw up.

Good luck

I had the same problem when I was young. The best way to start swallowing whole pills is to put your mind to it and condition yourself. One of the easiest things to swallow is a tic-tac, because they're so small and they taste good. Get a few tic-tacs and a big glass of water. Put a tic-tac as far back in your throat as you can, and take a big drink. Once you can do that, you can swallow an M&M, which is just a bit bigger. No worries if you don't get it right, cause it won't taste bad! And it's safe so you can eat as many as you need until your throat gets used to the sensation of a small unchewed object gliding past it.

The gag reflex can be hard to overcome at first, but that's what conditioning is for! It gets you used to the sensation.

After the candy comes the real test though. Once you can do an M&M whole, you have to move up to a real pill. The best pill to start with is Advil tablets, because the small ones are coated with sugar so they taste good and slide down easily. Also, they're about the same size as an M&M so it will be a piece of cake to swallow! After you've mastered that, you'll be taking bad-tasting vitamins and horse-sized Vitamin C pills like never before!

You have to put it in your mouth and drink a glass of water really fast but while watching something like tv so it distracts you and the pill goes down on its own. Or you can crush it in a spoon with a little water in it like liquid medicine.

Try putting it in a glass of water and chug the whole thing, don't even think about the pill! Unless you have to dry swallow it, then I don't know what to say D:

use your imagination..before swallowing...imagine that the pill is a small berry that should not be chewed but gulped and its helpful

Your pharmacist can supply a pill crusher which makes swallowing them much easier.

My parents used to put mine in a little bowl of pudding or inside a marshmallow when I was like 8 :D

Try drinking a big cup of water with the pill and don't think about a pill being in your mouth. Hope it works.
