pop a garlic capsule

RD11月号の記事 Steps to stave off illnessのNo.22の内容です。
Eat a whole raw oninon at the first hint of a cold to stop infection dead in its tracks (though it may stop everyone else in their tracks, too).
Onion contain allicin, which boosts immunity and reduces the severity of cold and flu symptoms. What's more, the pungent vapour released when you chop them contain irritant chemicals that make your eyes stream and your nose run, easing congestion as well as flushing our virus particles before they even take hold. A more sociable way to get a dose of allicin is to add garlic to food or <B>pop a garlic capsule</B>.
"<B>pop a garlic capsule</B>" ですが、料理用の "<B>garlic capsule</B>" があるとは思えないのでこれはいわゆる栄養のサプリメントとしての "<B>garlic capsule</B>" を服用することだと思いますが、"<B>pop</B>" にこの様な用法があるか辞書で確認します。
・Macmillan Dictionary: informal if you <B>pop pills</B>, you take them too often
・Vocabulary.com:drink down entirely: “They <B>popped a few beer</B> after work”
・American Heritage Dictionary: Slang a. To take (drugs), especially orally: "To calm a case of the jitters . . . the bride <B>popped Valium</B>" (People). b. To have (a drink): <B>popped a few beers</B> after work.
主要な辞書にはこの用法を掲載していないので、これは俗語ですね。　でもRDで使われているので知っていても良いでしょう。 今日は会社の忘年会。 We will pop some beer and drinks.
