Can i crush my calcium? i finally found the right one but omg its huge and when i tried to swallow it yesterday it did not feel good! I was thinking i could buy a pill crusher and then just sprinkle in yogurt or applesauce. would this work?

It's fine. I dunno how it will taste though. They actually make a powdered calcium citrate with no taste, called Upcal D. I use it and love it.

I am 8 months out now and can chew the big ones. Not pleasant but oh well. I also use the liquid Wellesse which is good. So I alternate :)

Hi All!

I had my surgery on 3/14/11. I was not a fan of the chewable Calcium at all and asked my surgeon if I could take it in a pill form. He said OK and I found Citracal Clacium Citrate + D3 Petites. Its pretty small and easy to swallow!
