Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
He can take plenty of water to drink and try to vomit if the pill will come out or not.
But no need to worry as your husband has no sign of choking and it may pass through stool.
I would advise to see doctor in case he feels abdominal pain or difficulty in swallowing other no need to worry.
