A member asked:
Not sure if i inhaled pill. been 36 hrs. would i already see symptoms of aspiration or inflammation? no constant cough. pill got hung is why i worry.

Pill inhaled: If you are not coughing or developing chest pain or fever then it's very unlikely you have a problem with the pill. The pills dissolve fairly quickly even if inhaled and the residue is fairly easily coughed out within a day or so.
