A member asked:
Breaking open indomethicin 25mg what exactly could happen if someone were to break one open and take the medication that way?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not much: The capsule is a convenient way to ingest the full and proper dose. If you break it open, you probably will lose some of the powder but the part taken in will have the proper action. Some have problems swallowing capsules and are advised to break open the dose and sprinkle the contents over something that you will be eating like jello or mashed potatoes.
