I have trouble swallowing large pills. What is the size of the tablet or gelcap?

They are what I would consider a large pill. They're about the size of the piece of metal that holds the eraser on a pencil; so about an inch long and about a quarter inch in diameter. But I don't see why you couldn't cut it in half, or something, as long as you end up taking it all.

Above average but not a "horse pill." Take it separately and should go down easier.

1/2" long x 1/8 of an inch wide. If you think you'll have trouble swallowing this size, then just cut it into half.

it is a small, smooth, oval tablet about 1/2 inch in length. I have no trouble swallowing it at all.

It is a caplet 2 mm x 1 mm or 7/8 x 3/8 inches. There is a score in the center if you needed to break it in order to swallow. I have trouble with large pills myself, but no problem swallowing these 2 daily pills one at a time.

they are large...nearly .75 inches - not hard to swallow unless you have trouble taking larger pills - would avoid then - they are a gelatin like pill/oblong instead of a rough pill or capsule

These pills are a medium size capsule. They go down fairly easy but I don't have a problem swallowing pills. It may be more difficult for those who have that problem.

Hello, my wife has the same problem - she claims not to be able to swallow big capsules, tablets, but with the Digest Spectrum she is OK, especially it really works with Digesting. These caps are slightly smaller than the big ones, like 1000mg vitamin C for example. Just a note: if you think - one doesn't have a problem to swallow food - it is times larger than any pill, so it is all in one's mind, not some restrictions, try to do it with a bite of an apple, or a piece of bread.Hope this helped.Good luck, Mark.

It is a 'gel-cap' that is just under 20 mm long by less than half that wide at the 'belly' of the oval width. Most people can get it down easy with water. Or, even the large, dry tablets can be swallowed with just a teaspoon of oil like Sesame or Coconut or any tasty such liquid. Hope this helps. [I do know of folks that crush dry pills or even use a pin to open this kind of gel cap and then chew, swallow and wash the mouth with juice to end any taste not otherwise welcome.

It looks like a small jelly bean. It's smaller than a One-a-Day multi. I have problems swallowing large capsules, but I've had no problem with this gel cap.

About the size of a Tylenol two part capsule, but a little fatter. Put the gelcap in your mouth and depress it just a little bit with your tongue. That will flatten it, if you have trouble swallowing large pills. Don't flatten it too much or it will be too wide. If you have an Esophageal Stricture, I would not take them. That is when the esophagus is narrowed at the upper part and the gelcap may get stuck. It will eventually break loose, but it is a very stressful ordeal while it lasts. Hope this helps......:)

I'm not sure the actual dimensions, but if anyone already has swallowing issues, I would NOT recommend these. They are very difficult to get down in my opinion and I have lots of practice with my other supplements. Actually I stopped taking them because I couldn't stand swallowing so many of them. I think you're supposed to take 4 a day.

Its a good sized pill, I'd say if you have trouble swallowing pills at all you better look for another product.

They are large capsules about the size of a capsule of antibiotic. I have no problem swallowing pill but I am always sure to take a drink of water before swallowing them.

1" long, 5/16" wide (it is a oblong capsule). I use food (not water) to swallow it.

I find that lots of people have problems with large capsules, best way is to make sure you swallow it long ways on with plenty of water, you will be OK then.

no more than a larger pill - they a slick capsule which helps - if you have trouble swallowing larger (like 3/4 inch length) capsules these may not be for you

It is more that 1/2 long and about 1/8 wide, but I find it easy to swallow as it has a slick capsule coating. Try this to swallow capsules better. Place the capsule on the back of your tongue. Put a large amount of water in your mouth and hold it there for about 10 seconds. Swallow. The capsule should go down with ease.

They are a large (approximately one inch) gel-coated capsule. Despite their size, I do not find them difficult to swallow. However, I do not have difficulty with most pills.
