What should I do ? I still feel it, it's one big pill. I'm scared.

Drink loads of water. Even after the pill goes down you may still feel like it is lodged because the pill started to dissolve in place which isn't a problem. if you can eat, drink and breath then you will be fine. Good luck

I had this a couple of weeks ago. It felt like the pill was still there, but I think it must have just hurt my throat on the way down because after eating something and having a drink it still really (and I mean really) felt like it was still there. The feeling just went away after a while.

Even if it is lodged (which is very unlikely), and drinking water doesn't shift it (even more unlikely), pills are designed to dissolve so it will be gone soon.

Hope you feel better soon.

just swallow a big chunk of bread with a glass full of water....... that'll shift anything!

I'm always getting my tablets stuck in my throat (caps) can really burn when they start to disolve, a bit like heart burn but worse, just need to keep drinkin water x

A cup of tea always helps shift it. :)
