    Someone already said it, but tilting your chin down opens your throat, while tilting your head back will constrict

    Tucking your chin down while swallowing pills is best

      Also many pills (especially capsules, where the coating and filling are separate vs tablets that are compressed as one) float, so counterintuitively, tilting your head forward actually brings the capsule up to the back of your throat!
