I just take them one at a time with a small drink of Water. They are small, no crushing needed.

I took all of mine whole with a very small sip of Water, one at a time at the hospital and when I got home. Only thing I waited two weeks to start again was the calcium.

I take all my meds like i did before (whole)

I crush mine per my instructions. I put the in the chocolate protein shake. It seems to mask the taste the best. I tried swallowing one small pill whole and it hurt so I will crush mine until I see the doc for my two week.
