A cup for a patient suffering from dysphagia comprises a base upon which the cup is capable of standing when on a level surface and a leading wall extending from the base. At least 50% of the length of the leading wall is at an angle of at least 100 degrees relative to the base, and in a plane parallel to the base, a lip of the leading wall is arcuate with a greater curvature than a lower region of the leading wall. The opening of the cup is oval-shaped. The leading edge of the opening is higher than the trailing edge of the opening. The cup allows a patient suffering from dysphagia to drink without having to unduly tip back his or her head. |
