Any Liquid BP medicine?

Does anybody know of any liquid blood pressure medicine? I am on Kalan and when they are crushed, they are nasty, so nasty that no matter what you mix them with, it is just too horrible to swallow.

Hi Joe, I was on a medication after surgery that was "Vile" tasing and I just crushed it and hid it in a tablespoon of applesauce or fat free yoguert. Got me thru it! Take care, Julio

Hiya Joe! Good to see you posting again. Can you cut the pills in half instead? That is what Dr. A told me to do. That way I don't have to taste them!! Angie

If they are not too big of a pill you could swallow them. or cut them in 1/2 and then swallow. I swallow all mine because I could not stand the crushed taste no how. good luck.

Hi I take about 15 pills a day and since the day after sugery I have taken them whole with water and some are really big but have never had a problem. I would just spread them out a little . Be very carefull crushing pills some you shouldn't do that to and even when you cut them you never no if all the med is in one 1/2 you should cut them if they are scored. I would first just try swallowing them. Good luck with your journey

Call your local pharmacist, tell them you had the surgery and ask if they know of any comprable liquid meds....there are alot out there in liquid(I have used them in nursing homes in the past)...besides the pharmacist knows faster than your doc does...just remember that liquid is absorbed faster and possibly may effect you quicker than swallowinga whole or crushed meds....good luck....by the way...my local FANTASTIC pharmacy is BEACON in East Haven (203-467-2600)...the pharmacists are JIM, ANNE and MARTHA...they are incredibly nice and will take the time to answer ANY questions....just tell them DREA sent you...I deal with them on a daily basis for work and they were INCREDIBLE with me post-op as I needed liquid Demerol and Liquid extra-strength tylenol in adult strength (both of which thye special ordered me from a nursing home type vendor...Good Luck!!!!!
