Buddy, I know you don't want to hear this, but you have to somehow consume that pill. You could A. Crush it up and put it in orange juice or any liquid with a strong taste (NOTE SPRITE!). B. Fess up to it, When it's time to take the pill don't fret, just say I can do this and you'll get it down. Keep trying it worked for me, and also kept me from death. Also, try and get someone who lives with you to surprisingly let you know when to take your pill. so you don't have the anticipate it all day.

Most medications are available in liquids, or chewables for those that have trouble swallowing tablets, so you may want to ask your doctor about trying one of them.

Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory that is used to treat pain, fever, and swelling. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, easy bruising, and increased risk of bleeding.

Ref: Medline Plus Ibuprofen

Antibiotics are used to treat, or prevent bacterial infections, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash.

Is there anything else I can help with?
