i've been sick so i've been taking lots of vitamins and DayQuil type stuff, and it hurts my throat so bad to choke them down. i never used to have a problem swallowing pills. in fact i used to be able to swallow any pill without water... but now i have to take like 3 gulps of water just to get 1 pill down. gel caps aren't so bad since they're smooth, but uncoated pills are sooo annoying.
Put pills in Ziplock bag. Use something heavy or the back of a spoon to crush them. Put crushed pills in applesauce, or PUDDING! Yum!
That's what we do with the old folks who have swallowing problems, hehe.

the worst thing is coatings, u know "the ones to make them go down easier" which actually taste like crap & make you heave. my suggestion is to put about 2 mouthfulls of water in a glass, drop tablet in & knock it back like a shot.

My gran used to help me with that when taking pain killers. But I don't think it's always a good idea to crush pills as the body doesn't absorb them probably. Sometimes it needs to be intact for them to work.
Or you can always try these:
