Curious questions about Meds

So, as I was taking my morning regiment of pills (crestor, lisinopril, onglyza and multivitamin) I realized Im so use to just popping all 4 pills in my mouth and gulping down water until they all go down. I know that this isn't going to be possible postOp. So, how do you get your meds down? My vitamin is the size of a horse pill! There's no way Ill be able to get it down with just a sip of water! So what happens? Do the put you on liquid meds? Do all meds come in some liquid form? What about things like Tylenol, Claritin D or Aleve? Things you would normally get over the counter....do you still use them?

I know this is a lot.... ;-) Just kind of wondering since no one has really talked to me about this.

Thanks

Chris

Thanks every one. I have my list of questions to ask on Friday :-)

I've been able to swallow mine whole as well since coming home after surgery. :)
