How do you swallow your tablets?

[Redway]

Do you take your paracetamol, olanzapine, gabapentin and antihistamines (or whatever it is you might take) with water or another kind of drink?

[Crimson Dynamo]

I dont take any regular tablets - on the odd occasion i take an ibuprofen I just have a wee bit water

[Niamh.]

Lots of water

OK that's more of a mystery to me than Kool Aid is :laugh:

[AnnieK]

I never used to have a drink when taking tablets - a left over habit from days of illicit substances in rave clubs that used to switch the water off so people had to buy the extortionate priced water bottles. However, I mentioned this to my doctor once (not the club bit, just that I just swallow tablets dry) and she said its actually really bad for you as it can get stuck and dissolve at in the wrong place and cause corrosion in your gullet. Now I drink a bit of water with them

[Liam-]

I’m less concerned about what people use to wash them down, than I am with the weirdos that take tablets dry

[bots]

i used to drink that. what's really funny is the text at the bottom "fully sweetened" :laugh:

You can easily order it off Amazon. Especially if you’re the type of person who’s attracted to American novelties.

[Redway]

Certain poll options are bound to be a little tongue-in-cheek/exaggerated when they come from me. That’s how I bring a vein of humour into the seriousness of whatever it is I might be otherwise saying. You’re not supposed to analyse them for British realism with a fine-tooth comb.

Water or whatever drink is available at the time really... I do dry swallow hay-fever tablets since they're so small.

what does it taste like, it looks like Capri Sun?

[thesheriff443]

Suicidal people usually take pills with alcohol rather than mineral water.

My daughter never could swallow tablet growing up, it only when she became mentally ill, could she swallow them

My nephew didn’t swallow a tablet fully at it burned his throat luckily with no long turn damage

I take a vitamin tablet each morning with water but I will have a coke chaser if one is opened.

[smudgie]

I take 21/23 tablets a day.
9 at lunchtime and I take them all in one go. Shovel them in, take a big gulp of coke, give it a second then swallow. Normally it’s the smallest ones that won’t always go down first time.

[bots]

that must warrant some form of tibb award smudgie :laugh:

The worst is when you swallow too early and the tablet sticks in your throat, the panic to wash it down with big gulps of water :laugh:

How come you have to take that many (if you don’t mind me asking/it ain’t too personal)?

[Josy]

With great difficulty bloody horrible things :fist:

[Beso]

I usually just poke them up my bum.

[Redway]

Not quite. More like a red berry-sugar drink kind of vibe.

For some reason I cant take non coated tablets? No matter how much liquid i use it wont go down and I end up gagging and almost throwing up

[ThomasC]

I'm proper hard.

I swallow without liquid.
