Medicine

[Jessica]

which do you prefer? the liquid or the pill kind?

 

[RedRyder]

I can take either. I just hope it doesn't taste too awful if I have to take liquids.

But I usually just take pills when it comes to medicines.

 

[GuesSAngel]

usually the pills b/c the liquid most of the time tastes like shit and makes me want to vomit. Pills go down nice and easy...one shot and most of the time there is no taste

 

[motorbyclist]

Roll it up, light it up and smoke it up...

I take medicine in pill form whenever I can.

I remember being little and spitting out awful tasting cough medicine. It was "grape" flavor and ended up all over the table. :yuk

I can't remember drinking medicine much after that.

I agree with you...those cough medicine taste so DISGUSTING! :yuk Especially the cherry flavor ones......

 

[GuesSAngel]

i don't think that couch medicine comes in pills, does it? i was just sick and the doc gave me liquid for cough medicine...so as adults we basically have no choice

 

[justmee]

both. you need a little vodka to wash the vicodin down

 

[Jessica]

No...don't think so. it should be. cough medicine is :yuk

 

[Anie]

I don't mind either, although the past few years I've been taking Dayquil instead of the cough syrup.

 

[motorbyclist]

The only good thing about cough medicine is the buzz it gives from the active ingredient DXM when skulled.

But I reckon the classic home remedy of honey is pretty damn effective.

 

[Goat Whisperer]

Would anyone choose liquid...

 

[HottyToddyChick]

I prefer to not take medicine unless I'm desperate.

what if you're ill?

 

[HottyToddyChick]

I will go for three days with a migraine if I can keep functioning on even a basic level. I went a whole month with a god awful cough and it eventually cleared up. I try to sleep off fevers. Now, if I have to be somewhere, I'll take medicine. If my migraine is so bad that I'm crying and it's making my cough act up which then hurts my head even more and then the pain makes me nauseous and I'm coughing, crying and throwing up, then yes, I will take medicine, but that's generally the point I have to hit.

I prefer to not take medicine unless I'm desperate.

Same here. Excluding the ones that keep me alive and birth control, I rarely take anything else.

 

[Sneakiecat]

And I don't mind most liquid medicines. It's just easier to shake one or two pills out instead of actually measuring it.

 

[HottyToddyChick]

Birth control I do take.

I will also say that for the most part, I prefer liquids over pills. Some of those pills are just HUGE and liquids like Dimetapp and Robitussin taste pretty good.

 

[Jessica]

Meh....the kids cough medicine says the flavor is 'wonderful' when in fact it isnt........maybe someday they will invent a liquid medicine that tastes good

 

[cam elle toe]

I offer pillules, or liquid form for my remedies. The pillules last longer, but the liquid I make my remedies up in is Brandy....so that goes down well
