Hi Chetan

As Cheryl suggests, you need to talk to your pharmacist or doctor about this as some medications can be crushed and some cannot. They will be able to switch your meds around to patches, liquids or crushable.

However, I want to share how Alex coped. Alex suffered nausea for months after chemoradiation and threw up no matter how we administered the pills. He found that the worst time was first thing in the morning for some reason. We also found that if he took his anti-nausea med, Maxalon, before getting out of bed, (sit up to take it but lie down immediately after), waited half an hour or so and then got out of bed, had a cup of coffee to test the state of his stomach, and then took his other meds, it was easier for him. Also, we switched time of day for taking the once daily meds to night time.

Crushing tablets (the ones your doctors tell you can be crushed) can be done between 2 big spoons and then administered as Cheryl suggests. Alex's pills didn't dissolve so we swilled them around in half a cup of water and then sucked the mix into a syringe before it had a chance to settle. Then flushed with another syringe of water, also swilled around the cup to pick up any bits we had missed.
