More information?: Hi. How many pills do you take at the time? Do you have any problems with swallowing to fluids or solids? How long do you have this problem for? Advise: Try taking one tablet at the time. Try to drink lots of fluids with it Try to avoid taking them right after food. If problems persist? You need to be checked physically and may be need some investigation. Regards

TOO MANY AT A TIME: If you are trying to swallow more than 2 or more at at a time than you could possibly gag. It happens to me so i take one at a time depending on the size of the pill or capsule or 2 if the meds. are small .You have a gag reflex like many people so don't worry but be sure to take your meds.
