Can someone help me find a way to cover up the flavor of a pill?!


Question: Can someone help me find a way to cover up the flavor of a pill?
You see, I have the flu, but honestly i am not good at taking pills so i have to open it and eat the powder inside, is there anyway anyone knows that you can mix in with the pill and make the overcome the nasty flavor of the pill? this would help alot thanks :)

Answers:

If my patients have difficulty swallowing pills, I usually mash them into a fine powder or else release the powder from the capsule and mix it in pudding or juice. I find that many of them like cranberry juice or orange juice to cover up the taste.

hey hey her don't break it!!! they made the way they are for a reason.

They are ment to be digested and released at a certain time, not broken open right way. Otherwise, they would just be chew-pills.

My suggestion is to just take a big mouthful of water (like a cheekful or more) and gulbing it all down with the pill. (or instead or water, use juice or some other liquid)



mash it up in your food
