I was told for pills if their smaller than a pea they are okay for us to swallow has anyone else been told this or have been swallowing pills after surgery?

A couple of mine I can crush, another I was able to get in liquid form...but my cymbalta I have to take whole. It's a gelcap with beads inside and the Rx said you can't open it and just swallow the beads. I am weaning myself off it right now but in the meantime I just have to swallow that one whole and pray it doesn't get stuck anywhere!

My vitamins are chewable, but when I need to take tylenol I can swallow them whole. But my doc did suggest to split larger pills up, so it won't bother the pouch.

I swallow a large Allegra pill every morning ever since two weeks after my lap band. I have had it stick for a few seconds at times,but another sip of water and down it goes. Remember though, that was me unfilled and then at 1cc,now I am at 2cc & don't know what to expect.
