Taking Pills with Warm Water is Dangerous...

Most people when they're suffering
from flu commonly consume Capsulated
tablets with warm water, not knowing
whether the pill would safely reach
the stomach. This could be serious and
perhaps you should consider proper
ways of swallowing pills.

Doctors Advice:
* Pills can be taken singly by using
cold water. After swallowing, a person
should drink a lot more water.
* Take your pills 30 minutes before
you go to bed, don't go straight to
bed immediately after taking pills.

Incident:
One day a guy took some antibiotics
and for not drinking enough water to
flush it straight down to the stomach,
the pill was lodged on the food tract
and caused an inflammation. For six
days he could only take cold milk and
water-soluble food and was
hospitalized for five days. The Doctor
warned that should it get any worse,
an ulcer in the intestine may result.
So please exercise caution.

When taking medicine in pill or
capsule form:
* DO NOT use warm or hot water/fruit
juice/all kinds of sweet drinks to
wash down the medicine.
* The right way is to down it with
cold water. If you feel discomfort in
the throat after taking a pill,
drink
lots of water or cold milk. Stand
or sit straight when you take your
pill and do not lie immediately.
