[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2165413, member: 41816"] Absolutely right not to cut them up. Slow release tablets usually have coatings on them which helps with the slow release part. cutting them open => fast release. When I get daunted by tablets, I try and remember that tablets are smaller than a mouthful of food - and those go down the hatch ok! ;) The last time I had enormous horse pills (antibiotics) I ended up taking them with food. Literally in a mouthful of chewed food. Worked like a charm. [/QUOTE]
