A member asked:
Can i take the medicine out of its capsule and it will still work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Many medicines are time release or otherwise specially formulated so the capsule is not just gelatin, it is a sophisticated "delivery system." you should ask your pharmacist if your specific med is ok to remove from capsule (and dissolve in whatever).
