FOR THOSE WITH TROUBLE SWALLOWING
We know there are many reasons that might cause difficulty swallowing. Some people have trouble with knowing the pills are in their mouth. Some have trouble swallowing ‘larger’ pills. Still others have swallowing issues entirely unassociated with pills.
We direct this to those who can swallow, but have trouble swallowing pills.
This video shows a method that might make the task of swallowing your medications easier.
In it, Doctor Karan explains, shows a demonstration, and shows diagrams, that explain a method for swallowing pills that works well for some people.
OTHER SUGGESTIONS
…for helping those who have trouble swallowing their medications. Always check with your doctor.
- putting the pill or supplement or capsule into food and swallow with food. (check with your pharmacist because sometimes pill contents should not be taken out of capsules)
- standing to take pills…posture upright.
- using a plastic water bottle with the opening completely inside the lips. (Bottle method)
IF you have a specific situation, other than swallowing pills, check with your primary health provider and then perhaps search the videos on YouTube.
