When Can We Take Whole Pills?

[music1618 879]

My surgery is in 1 week so I am having this dilemma at the moment. My dr did tell me I would need to crush mine. I take Neurontin and the pills are on the larger side. I crushed one tonight as a prep and it was a pain to do. Bet it tastes GROSS.

So for those who used the SF choc Syrup or apple sauce etc; on what day following surgery did you start? I do not want to miss ONE day of my meds. OK so I guess I will miss a day' date=' but want to start right away.[/quote']

Check with your doc and pharmacy - there night be a liquid version or you can have it compounded into something a little better tasting

I guess I don't really understand this - isn't that bad to do? I am so fearful of things bgetting caught in any stapled area.

I've taken whole pills since the day after surgery. I do cut my Calcium pills in half. The rest are small enough and I've never had any issues.

Mine had me taking whole pills before I left the hospital.
