Why do pills feel like they are in your throat for a few minutes after taking them even though they aren't. don't feel stuck just like there is a sensation for a min. is this normal and why?

GERD?: You may not be drinking enough fluid when you take pills, try taking them with applesauce or food. You may have a condition called dysphagia, see your provider to check this out!

Nerves: The nerves in your esophagus may be stimulated by the coarser/harder texture of the pill (as compared tot he normal texture of chewed foods), and it leaves a few minuted of "memory" in your mind that makes it feel like they are still there. Best wishes.

Back of throat?: Perhaps the pills are still at the back of your throat although you can't see them. Best to take with fluids and wash them down and that should reduce the sensation. As long as you don't regurgitate them, it's not something to worry about.
