Comment on What if medicine intentionally tastes bad?
untorquer@quokk.au 11 hours agoYou’re not wrong about some drugs but others taste bad simply because they don’t consider flavor and you’re supposed to just swallow them anyways.
Some Ibuprofen pills which taste neutral to pleasant while others are awfully bitter. Ibuprofen itself has a clinical or sterile or saline IV flavor, not offensive.
Unflavored sugar pill is a pretty awful taste on its own.

If unflavored sugar pills taste bad then estradiol tastes weirdly good. I’d just assumed it was the sugar

I’ll edit the post slightly but i think it’s safe to assume this is the case 🤣
