I've only had to use it once, when I had chicken/broccoli stuck. I only had to take one pill, and I got relief.

The bottle I have says to chew 4 of them. I've tried several times but it's never helped me, it's always ended up coming back up anyway.

I have taken different amounts at different times. I usually start with 2. If it's gonna work--it usually works with that. Sometimes I take a few more as I see it working to just help more. The tabs are cheap and won't hurt you.

My bottle says to take 3 after each meal to help with digestion, so I just do that. Usually works. I haven't PB'd yet! Of course I've only gotten stuck a couple of times but it's helped each time. I do also take them after lunch and dinner. They're good for you.

I bought my papaya enzyme this weekend "just in case" and used it today when a triscuit was uncomfortable. I chewed one tablet (yummy too) and it worked great! I really reccommend it!

I just had another fill and tried the papaya enzyme becasue a piece of fish got stuck and it worked immediately. I highly recommend these tablets. I tried another suggestion (pineapple juice) and this did not work for me.

all I know is when something gets stuck it really sucks. and hurts too. I would say chew your food well and make sure it is not dry when it goes down and you wont have any issues. I have had enough stuck food from being in a hurry that I never eat fast anymore and I never take a phone call when eating ever. Because I always forget to chew well when talking on the phone and it ends in a stuck food deal no matter what I am eating. Yes it sucks and hurts and I hate to bring it back for a second look. You all know what i mean. Yes it hurts. no it's not fun. I do everything to not have it happen ever. Sometimes I get stupid and eat to fast and forget to chew. oh yeah and eat the wrong food. .when you think you should not eat it don't eat it. Scotty d

oh yeah Paypaya or pineapple both work for me but I still have a second look. and it hurts. any questions.

I have found that the papaya enzymes work for me. But I have also found that the pineapple juice has also worked. I keep both on hand, just in case.

I carry a bottle of the enzymes in my purse and have a can of pineapple juice at work. Better safe than sorry!

I too carry Papaya Enzyme with me at all times just in case. I usually chew 4 at a time like my bottle says, but if I am really stuck and in a panic I have doubled it to 8. I also give these to my husband (not banded) when he has a tummy ache and it helps him more than tums or pepto bismol does.

I have also tried meat tenderizer when I'm stuck, but that stuff tastes awful and makes me feel worse. I haven't tried pineapple juice.< /p>

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
