You might try Tylenol capsules or a liquid. I don't think I would want to taste the pill crushed into yogurt. Try a capsule and see how you do.

Why not just swallow them? Or cut in two and then swallow, if they're too big for you? Given your surgery date, it seems like you should be able to handle pills by now unless they're really big.

And I bet they taste nasty, no matter what food you try to hide them in.

They do...

So I just started swallowing the whole pill...

I thought I wasn't supposed to have pills yet- but crushing them...

was not working for me.

Thanks for the advice everyone...
