    Good thread! I've recently been put on Ferrous Sulphate tablets to increase the serum ferritin levels in my blood, and I put the tablet near the back of my tongue, then take a sip of water and swallow. Those tablets are only small and disc-shaped, sometimes it takes a few gulps to swallow a longer paracetamol!
