How to do if the medicine is stuck in the esophagus

If an adult gets a drug stuck in the esophagus, it is necessary to check which dosage form the drug is in. If it is a capsule dosage form, the outer skin of the capsule can be destroyed and corroded by drinking large amounts of warm water, resulting in rapid disintegration of the capsule and absorption of the drug, and if it is a capsule dosage form, the barrier wall and barrier mucosa of the capsule can be destroyed by drinking large amounts of water or acetic acid, thus relieving the foreign body from choking and getting stuck in the esophagus. If the drug is not in capsule form, for example, a large number of tablets, then you can vomit and pick your throat after drinking large amounts of warm water to spit out large pieces of the drug retrogradely down the esophagus, which can also have the effect of relieving the effect of the drug stuck in the esophagus. If a child accidentally gets a pill stuck in the esophagus, the foreign body can be relieved by the Heimlich maneuver, in which an adult shocks the child’s abdomen behind the child and expels the foreign body down the esophagus.
