How to give pills to a dog with pancreatitis not eating or drinking?

Question

I took my dog to the vet today and they figure she has pancreatitis. They gave us some pills for her. She yelps when even try to put a little water in her mouth because she isn't eating or drinking. My question is how can we get her to ingest her pills with her being so sensitive? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Large (61lb +) | Female | spayed | 10 years and 8 months old | 61 lbs

Poor puddin, it sounds like she may need to be hospitalized for pain medications and intravenous fluids and medications, force feeding is not appropriate if she is that distressed and she is unlikely to recover without medical intervention. Contact your vet for a recheck and possibly admission
