Why is it so easy to swallow food but not pills?
In: Biology
My first medication in pill form was penicillin. No one gave me any instruction. This pill had a horrible taste. I will never forget it. After failed attempts including grinding it up and putting it in applesauce, my grandfather stepped in and had me try drinking milk with meds. Thick enough to trigger the swallow reflex. I still choke if I use water.
