Re: swallowing tablets

Be careful! Cola should be avoided when you take pills, in my opinion.
By the way, I was choked up twice with pills...some other people can not understand this. I always ask any liquid form to Doctors...if they say NO, i ask if i can break it or not. Recently I was taking Mucinex just few times, and on the box, they say NOT to break it. But, I STILL break it in half. (one doctor said it is ok anyway) Sometimes, you need to ask more information to pharmacisits or doctors, even though drug company recommand NOT to break it. Some medicine targets to be digested NOT in stomuck but below there...sometimes breaking pills accelerates the absorption speed which supposed to be very cautious. If you decide to break it anyway NOT knowing any information, just be cautious and try smaller dose than recommanded and try more frequent with small dose. (Please I'm not a doctor, nor pharmacist, so, you have your own responsibility whether to take this advice or not)
But he was pierced for OUR transgressions,
he was crushed for OUR iniquities;
the punishment that brought US peace was upon him,
and by his wounds WE are healed. (Isaiah 53:5 NIV)
