Hi, I was doing OK on taking my crushed vitamin, Ca and other medication pills with a flavored drink, link SF Cranberry juice. However, after 1 week I do not seem to be able to swallow it anymore. Some of the meds tastes bitter. ANy tricks and suggestions? Thanks!!

I've heard people mix it with a small amount of jelly. The sweetness of the jelly counteracts the tartness of the pills.

i have in the past put a small coating of peanut butter around it.... worked for me..

like when the kids were little....mix the meds with some applesauce.

I just swallow it bitter but I have heard of some people mixing the crushed pills with yogurt.

instead of crushing can you just cut them in 1/2, 1/3 or 1/4 and swallow them? I can take mine just fine without crushing.

When I first got home from Surgery, was bought a pill crusher at Wal-Mart for 1.00.

Now I just break them into and have no issues; I am 30 days out & have not had any fills yet!

Thank you for the suggestions! I will try jello first, then I will just cut them.
