I'm usually good, but today I tried popping 1 horsepill + 4 smaller pills and almost gagged.

I couldn't swallow pills until I was in college, and even now I have a hard time if they're bigger than an Advil.

I manage... When I was younger I couldn't want to start taking pills b/c I hated the taste of liquid medicine!
I don't like the "stuck" feeling you get sometimes, but I much prefer pills to liquid!

I have to take them one at a time, but they go down easily. My mom can swallow a whole handful of pills at once. No way!

I have to take a lot of pills these days, so I'm fine at it. Very big pills are still hard to swallow, but none of my regular ones are that big. I always take them one at a time with lots of water.

I found what works for me is to drank some water but hold it in my mouth then drop the pill in there and swallow them together. I know it sounds weird but it works really well I don't gag or they font get stuck in my throat

No. I can't. I hate it when I can't swallow it in one gulp and it's one of those meds that taste bad. I've gagged up meds a few times. If I throw it in the back of my throat and quickly drink something, it usually helps. Partly why I get gummy vitamins.

I used to be able to take as many as I needed at once. I know for sure I was doing 12 at a time at one point fairly recently, and some were pretty big (fish oil and prenatals). Then I got pregnant. I had very little nausea, but pills were SO hard. I still gag at 19 weeks just *thinking* about swallowing more than one at a time.

Yes. I barely even think about it. I swallow many pills every day and its not an issue.

No, I had to take prenatal gummies. If I have to take a big pill, I try to break it in half.
