I used to have that problem so my parents always used to get dissolveable tablets or otherwise give me a drink or something to eat with them so I couldn't taste it.

I'm exactly the same - most of the time, I gag even with the smaller ones, even though I swallow with a big gulp of water!

My brother believes he has the same problem so he normally has a biscuit when he's about to swallow tablets so that he doesn't realise it going down...

I always used to just cut mine up. I remember having to take antibiotics when I was like 12 and they were so huge I couldn't get them down. I can swallow them now though.

I stopped cutting mine up when I found out it can prevent the medicine from being properly absorbed and of course then I learned to swallow them whole with no problem  |
