Took Pamprin For Cramps. Cleared Throat And Still Having The Taste Of Dissolved Pills. Suggest Suitable Way To Cure?
I took a Pamprin for my cramps a few days ago, and ever since then, shortly after, I've been tasting what appears to be bits of dissolved pill. It is now 3 days later and I'm still tasting it. Every time I've cleared my sinuses/throat, I can taste it and feel it moving around. Is there any way for the pill to get stuck in my sinuses by accident and is there a way to dislodge it?

Hello,
The pill can not go up in the sinuses or the back of nose ,the tablet must have gone down but would have stuck for some time in throat.
You can drink carbonated beverage like pepsi,coke etc .
These beverages will help in removing if there is any tablet sticking in the throat and will bring that down it there is any tablet.This feeling will go off in a day or two.
In doubt do reply
