How do you take tablets?

Depending on the tablet, I just swallow them whole without any water/juice.

However, for some I do need juice. However, unlike most people, I put the juice in first then the tablet. Not the other way around, that way is much easier.

Tablet on tongue, drink water, done.

swallow it insanely quickly same time as water as I hate them.

i try not to take any tablets unless I really need to

too many people depend on them

but usually I'll just swallow them
then drink something to help them on their journey

I take all the tablets at once with a glass of water

just put the tablet on my tongue then put my tongue like to the back of my mouth and swallowwww
sometimes have a glass or water afterr
i dont have to take that many anymore though so wooo only like two small tablets a day haha

i swallow it??

put the tablet in my mouth drink water and swallow it

I usually have liquid because I've rarely been able to take tablets. However, over the last couple of years I've found I'm able to swallow more than before such as capsules etc. it just depends what they are.

i take my contraceptive pill without any water as it's very very very tiny and sweet tasting. if i've to take any paracetamol i normally just break it in half, place on my tongue then drink with water and swallow

Same - although I have put it in too far and made myself gag a few times, that's only because I'm stupid though LMAO

I either swallow the tablets with water or use soluble tablets. Just depends what we have in the house.

I hardly take tablets but when I do and it's normally for headaches then we normally have the Nurofen meltlets in the house so just stick them on my tongue and let them melt.

If I do have to take the other type of tablets then stick it in my mouth and have a drink and bam, it's gone :P

swallow them all at once with water

I can swallow without a drink, or if not, tablet in, drink and done

So am I the only one who takes paracetamol as a suppository :(

I can take them perfectly fine.

I usually just put it on my tongue and drink some water.

I'm really bad at taking tablets and normally request liquid from the doctor (I have my own supply of calpol to take to uni :$) although I have iron tablets that I have to have in a mouthful of food to swallow it although I've had them for a few years now so I'm managing to do with just water now.
Havent tried them plastic capsules since the last time I couldnt swallow them like 2 years ago and had to open them and eat the power it was gross.

If they are small size, I drink water to correctly swallow them.
If they are larger, I prefer to grind them, combine the powder with water and cheers!

With capsules, I usually swallow them with water no matter how big they are, I just don't trust the powder inside.

swallow with water or coffee

put the tablet on my tongue and drink something

i usually take 2 n swallow them one after the other then take a drink of water

I don't need water but if I have some around then it's easier.

I place the tablet on the tongue then wash it down with some water. It was funny because I remember when I first started taking tablets, my mother was trying to help me, and I remember how she used to flip her head back after she took one, and I would do the same and ask why it was going down. Turns out you actually had to actually swallow the tablet.
