put water in your mouth first, and then slip the pill in and gulp it down. just try not to make a slob out of yourself.

When i was a kid i choked on stuff all the time..i was constantly inhailing candy and other food items and my mom would pick me up by the feet and shake me over the bathtub...not the most effective way to unchoke a child but im still here..
When i got older i could not for the life of me swallow pills...it took me a very long time to get used to it.. I put the pill under my tongue and pretend its not there and drink lots of juice..i cant do it with water. I think that you just really have to pretend its not there...it takes a bit of practice but i can do 3 pills at a time now...
hope this helps.

I work in a hospital kitchen and every other day we send out about 20 tiny 1-ounce cups with APPLESAUCE in them. They are for patients who have a hard time swallowing pills. Give that a try.

Liquid or tablet or capsule?
By spoon or put it on the end of the tongue inside the mouth near the throat and drink water. It will slide down with water.

If it's one of those hard-as-rock pills, then crush it with a hammer or something similar and put the crushed pill in a PB&J sandwich.

All meds come in liquid and self-dissolving forms - ask your doctor to prescribe them rather than the pills or caplets.

I smoke my medicine, or just inject it directly into my veins.
