    At least close your mouth first, unless you like spilling drink+pills everywhere.

    Pretty sure tilting the head down is implied in my personal swallowing process. I’m not sure I can actually swallow anything with my chin up.

      Tilt head back, open mouth, drop in pill(s), IMMEDIATELY swallow

      Definitely not implied. I thought your entire point was keeping the head tilted back.

        Good for you. Only reason to tilt the head back is to not spill. Closing the mouth fixes that. This is “pill taking recommendations”, not “re-thinking swallowing-in-general 101”

      They’re talking about a way to prevent aspiration with dysphagia by tilting the chin down to the chest.
