:shock: I usually take my pill every day with either water or whatever I'm drinking at that moment. I took my pill with Dr Pepper today and it immediately started fizzing and foaming in my mouth and it dissolved. Did doing that make it easier to take or make the pill ineffective?

I think it made it ineffective because I'm feeling sightly nauseous right now. What do I do?

As long as you didn't throw up your pill, it should still have gotten in to your system, but it would be a good idea to check in with a pharmacist. They're the people who have the best information about medications and whether things like this will affect them.
