Vitamin D Deficiency. In Summer

My doctor called in a prescription, so it’s some kind of generic. A little bigger than what your pics show, I think. I had the CVS pharmacist show me the pill and it’s a good-sized gelcap. Round and bigger than a Claritin-D.

I have an esophageal stricture (unrelated and being treated), so I have a hella time swallowing certain kinds of pills (round is bad, too large is bad). These were out of the range that I could swallow. “Gigantic” is in the eye of the beholder. Or swallower.

Ah. See, I start my day with a minor handful of pills that I hork down all at once to get them done with. But then again, I started taking pills that were not chewable when I was 5.

Since the liquid is fairly nominal, add it to something and drink it? It isn’t a time release issue I wouldn’t think.

I lived in one of the hottest places in Australia and had the problem. It was simply too hot to go into the sun- and The Melanoma Centre would have torn strips off me if I did. I took the pills.

When I first had my tonsils out (age 22), I could throw down my morning handful of pills in one go, with coffee. I’m hoping we can get me back to that, it would be nice.

I added the Vitamin D drops to a shotglass and filled it with pom-cherry juice, then did it like a shot. It was ok. I’m glad that hanging out in bars in my 20s wasn’t a total waste of time!
