Crushing medication...blech!

I'm on my clear liquid diet and I have to crush my pills twice a day and drink them for two months. I can't take it anymore. I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!!

Any suggestions on liquids that might make them taste better? They're pretty much not gonna stay down soon. I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!!

why not just take the pills normally. I did. ;)

I'd love to but my surgeon is pretty strict.

We also take all our pills without crushing, at least 12 a day including the supplements. The only thing I refused to swallow was the huge multivitamin, and I went with Source of Life Liquid Gold and it tastes awesome and my labwork has been excellent. You can swallow the pills easily.

My surgeon won't even release his patients from the hospital until they swallow their meds whole.

This. Is. Awesome.

I was given samples of Bari Life supplements. They come in a powder form, you mix in water and have different flavors. these have all the vitamins we are supposed to have...all in one powder! I think I will order some because I do not like taking so many different pills!

I have not been taken off my normal meds yet and have to crush 4 of my pills right now ..... I hate it too!! They make me gag so I started taking them with a flavored drink like my protein shake or a glass of skim milk to help take my mind off the taste.

My doctor had me swallowing pills day 2. I had surgery Monday. Tuesday I was taking pills, whole.
