Please, people who have cared for cancer patient or medicine professionals?

my dearest friend is going through chemo for his glioblastoma and is fairly ok, eats and drinks without a problem, but when it's time to take his meds he refuses completely. He had most of the tumor burnt by gamma knife, his motor skills are at about 50% but he just won't cooperate when swallowing his meds.
How can we help him swallowing them without crunching them (they are hideously bitter)? Thanks tons.
