Can i crush my contraceptive pill and intake it?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Yes, you can do it, crush it into small pieces but do not miss any piece. If you crush into powder, you may not get the whole dose.

You can crush the pill. It would be important to swallow all of the crushed pill. There are chewable formulations. That would be preferred.
