Yup.

Capsules can be more difficult to swallow than tablets
Many patients have difficulties, both psychologically and physically, swallowing medicines. This may result in poor compliance, treatment failure and decreased quality of life. The swallowing of capsules can be particularly difficult. This is because capsules are lighter than water and float due to air trapped inside the gelatine shell.

In comparison, tablets are heavier than water and do not float. The usual method of swallowing oral solid dose forms - placing on the tongue, filling the mouth with water, tilting the head back and swallowing - works well for tablets because they do not float and gravity, when the head is tilted back, assists swallowing. If this technique is used with a capsule, it will float on the water in the front of the mouth, placing it in the anatomically incorrect location for ease of swallowing.

Leaning forward may assist
Instead a 'lean-forward' technique has been suggested,1,2 in which the capsule floats to the back of the mouth and into a good position to be swallowed easily.

Hope you are joking. If not, as a Registered Nurse I feel I need to pass on a screenshot with some info. It also can make tinnitus worse.

Saw this and saw your cute plushies. Thought I’d share the only one I’ve made. Totally hand sewn. (Not doing that again). Birthday present for my husband. Had to be sneaky for most of it. Took months.

Last night in Westcliffe Colorado. From guest bedroom window. Stitched 2 pics together so it shows that the Aurora looked like a rainbow hugging the ground for miles. Best viewed full screen in horizontal. Another stitched pic posting separately.
