What do you mix crushed medications in for drinking?

I'm crushing up all my Vitamins and pills, then mixing into my Soups. IT TASTES MEGA-NASTY.

What are you guys putting your crushed up medications in, to alleviate some of the horrible taste? I'm tired of nasty soups.

Note: I can't get chewable versions of these meds.

If I were to make a suggestion, I would put them in a very small amount of sugar free pudding for example. Make sure it is not your personal favorite or you will never enjoy it again. Either that or use a shot glass with some crystal lite and get it over quick...

Do your pills have to be crushed or can you just cut them up? I have two blood pressure pills that are what I consider very small. I cut one in half and the other one in 4 little pieces. I use Yoplait lemon yogurt and put a tiny bit on the spoon, then I drop two or three pieces into the yogurt and swallow it down. I haven't tasted them at all and will continue to LOVE that yogurt after I no longer need to cut up my pills.

My PPI is in a capsule. I open it up, get a little bit of yogurt on a spoon sprinkle a few of the contents on the spoon and swallow without biting into the little pieces. My surgeon and pharmacist both agree this is fine.

I make sure to drink some Water after taking all these. Good Luck!!

I have been oked for swallowing pills after 2 weeks, before then I used a little bit of pudding or applesauce... then ate another bite without the meds after to clear the taste.
