Guest guest Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Emma, my MIL no longer swallows pills anymore. She started chewing them because she couldn't get them down. The speech therapist told us it was because of her tremors, the movement of her tongue was not normal, so the pills weren't swept back into her esophagus. Might be the same thing happening to your grams. I always talk to the pharmacist now to make sure whatever they give her can be crushed with no ill effects.
