Always struck me the amount of scenes in shows and movies where they just dry-pill it actually.
Apparently it’s to save runtime… But it always just makes the audience think the character is making a strange choice - or breaks the fourth wall with the reminder they’re taking a pill without water. But hey, you saved those 3 seconds of b-roll of the character sipping water, grats.
I can dry swallow and do half the time. Am I doing something wrong ?
Well, you don’t simply have to get a pill into your throat, it also must go all the way down.
And some pills like sticking to the throat lining very much.
And you might not notice that.
And, sticking in place, they can lead to nasty things, like inflammation or chemical burns - aspirin, for example, does that.
The water is there to prevent that.Just conjure sone spit and swallow. It’s not hard.
