How Can A Pill Stuck Inside The Throat Be Removed?

I believe I have a pill stuck in my throat. Its been over 24 hours. I have tried everything from drinking lots of water, eating, trying to throw up. Nothing is working. Should I be worried? It should be noted that I am having no trouble breathing it is just annoying and makes me gag on occasion.
