Gall Bladder Meds

I am on meds to prevent gallbladder stones but the pills are HUGE! Hard to get down. Anyone else on these?

    Actigall is available as a capsule, and can be opened and dumped/mixed in unsweetened applesauce. I do this twice a day. The medicine doesn't affect the taste of the applesauce at all.

never heard of 'em! hope they work! :)

can you break them in half or something?.. if it's a solid pill, you can use a pill cutter & make it smaller & more manageable. :) if it's a capsule, then i'm sorry it's big. :(

Ursodial. They are huge capsules. Dr said reduces odds of stones by 30%. Take twice a day and they hurt going down. A real pain as they feel like they get stuck every time.

I am still doing chewable vits but thought about crushing regular ones into smoothy. When chewables gone I will try it.

I'm also on the same pill. My Doctor won't let me swallow pills - I have to open them up and put them in pudding to take them.

I open them up and put on tongue and swallow with a little water, doesn't taste great but it works
