How many pills/vitamins can you take in an hour?

I am 7 weeks post op and having a lot of frustration with my pills. Pre surgery I could take 5-6 pills at a time. Now I can take 2 pills max. I also have to wait 20-30 minutes between taking pills. I find that if I overdo it and take too many to fast I get sick and start to dry heave and have the foamies. How long will it take before I can take more pills at a time? Also, does anyone else have this problem and get the dry heaves? Aren't they annoying?!

At first, I could only take one pill at a time and they sometimes made me feel nauseated, but within a couple of weeks it was much more normal. I now take a bunch all at one time, just as before.

Well i take animal pak and i can take em one by one with no troubles except a little burping. I am going on 3 weeks post op.
