Pills stuck in the throat will melt on their own in about 0.5-1 hours. At present, the tablets, capsules or pills commonly used in clinical practice are mostly round, with smooth surface, plus the human throat wall and esophagus wall are also smooth, so it is not very common for tablets to get stuck in the throat. Even if the pill is stuck in the patient’s throat, it can melt on its own within 0.5-1 hour, so the patient does not need to worry too much, and the pill can be brought into the esophagus by drinking more water during this period. In addition, some patients may have throat discomfort or psychological problems caused by the irritation of the throat and esophagus when the tablets are stuck in the throat, and feel that the symptoms of stuck throat persist, which is a normal phenomenon. However, if the patient has difficulty in breathing and other discomfort when taking the tablets, it is recommended to go to the hospital for emergency medical treatment in a timely manner. Patients are advised to take the medication with warm water as much as possible, and not to talk during the medication to avoid the danger of the tablets entering the airway by mistake.
