Eat peanut butter. It will make the pill go down instantly. Sit up (don't lie down or recline) and drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Warm liquids may help to dissolve a pill a little faster. A few bites of something starchy like bread or rice can help. If the pill doesn't dislodge by itself, it is best to seek professional medical help, as some pills can actually cause harm to the lining of your esophagus if left unchecked.

If a hard pill is stuck in your throat, try drinking plenty of water to help wash it down. You can also take small bites of soft food, like bread or applesauce, to help push it down. If those methods don’t work, try bending forward and coughing forcefully to dislodge it. If the pill is still stuck or if you experience significant discomfort, seek medical attention immediately.

Has anyone had a Strattera capsule stuck in their throat?

It happened to me the second day I took the pill -- really frightened me. In addition to all the things you mentioned in your post, I Thought I was having a heart attack. Hasn't happened since tho... Usually I take pills dry, but it obviouslt doesn't work that way (for me) with capsules. "Osmotic burn?" I had a tetracycline capsule stick in my throat once. After 2 days of it still feeling like it was there, I called my doctor, and... ...she said sometimes a capsule gets stuck, the shell dissolves, and a compact enough lump of dry powder gets left in one place long enough to cause an osmotic burn. -IOW, the powder (can be anything that dissolves in water) dehydrates to death some of the surrounding cells (a la salt-on-a-slug). Washing the pill down with more water (and after too) & food was the recommendation. That worked for me, and the feeling went away after 4-5 days. For reference, I only had the sensation of the cap being stuck in my throat for days and swallowing being a little painful. No other symptoms. I'm not a doctor, and as always YMMV, etc. etc.
