[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's common to open the capsules for patients that can't swallow a capsule (like children or the elderly) -- you just sprinkle it on yogurt or applesauce. But I agree with others that it would be hard to split up evenly, and that each of the little grains might not be the same thing.[/quote] And to quarter it would be damn near impossible. I open my kids' capsule and there is no way you'd be able to measure out 1/4 accurately. Half the time it comes out in clumps. Plus, what are you going to do with the powder/grains once you open it?
