I am 6 days post-op.

I need to turn my pills into powder and somehow get it in!!

I hate bad tasting things, does anybody have an idea how to get this in easily without making me want to throw up??

Can you add it to your broth or protein shake?

Someone on the forum suggested a spoonful of sugar free chocolate syrup and I thought that was a really great idea.

It is not easy to make crushed meds tasty. Best option that I found was sugar free chocolate pudding. Not terrific but I got them down.

gonna try the sf chocolate syrup. my meds are horrible!

I know the feeling... I have been experimenting with different things(I'm still pre-op for another week.) One of mine is horrid!!! Can't find anything that cuts the taste. Let me know if you find something that works. My bad one is effexor.

mine too! i have to take 2 large pills twice a day!!! been really thinking about quiting them they're soooooo bad!

My doc doesn't make me crush mine. I can cut them into quarters and take them. Depends on the size of the pill. Try calling your doc and ask if you have to crush it or can you make them small bits instead.

Thanks all for the ideas.....will definately try the choc pudding or sauce. Just dont think we get sf choc sauce here in SOuth Africa!!

Seeing my doc tomorrow to remove staples....will ask him if i can just make them smaller!!
