I have a difficulty swallowing pills. Can these be crushed up into food?

I cannot take tablets but only capsules. These are easy to swallow capsules; therefore, they can simply be opened to take the contained powder by itself without the capsule encasement.

I'd recommend you buy D-Mannose in powder form and mix it with water. It's slightly sweet. The capsules are mainly for convenience. Piping Rock in up-state NY has it in powder form at a reasonable price.

They are a little smaller than the standard capsules. I have not had a problem swallowing them as i do with some of the other pills.

I have not tried to chew them and I am waiting for my next bottle. When I get it, I will try and let you know. Of any pill I have taken, they are very easy to swallow. You prob could cut them in half and that would make it easier to take. They are similar to a football in shape, oval.

They are NOT large like the fish oil pills they are narrow and half the width of fish oil. You shld have no problem swallowing them

Never had chew them. I have no issue swallowing the pills. If you can handle the taste more power to you.

They are very hard. I have never tried. It might be easier to partially let them dissolve. But if you had a pill cutter it would probably work

they are small. I have no problem swallowing them. they can be opened as well sense they are in a gelatin capsule and sprinkled on food or toast. I know they will not be a problem for anyone sense they are versatile to use

Do not swallow capsules, swallow what inside of them. I do and it works. Thank you.

Not for me, but I never have had issues with such things. They are large pills, but rounded and soft (semi squishy--liquidy inside), so I think an average person can have them with fair ease.

Well they're capsules so You'd just have to pull the pill apart. I don't see why not I take mine apart and mix it in my water when I don't want to swallow the whole thing so IMO yes

These tablets are NOT coated. They are oblong in shape. I have no problem swallowing a handful of pills, but if you have trouble swallowing pills, this product might be an issue for you.

Yes, they are large and the coating does make it easier to swallow. My doctor taught me a trick for swallowing pills that has made taking the biggest of pills easy. You put the pill or pills in your mouth with a mouthful of water and swish the pills around with the water until they are all wet. This keeps them from sticking. Then you throw your head back until your entire throat is vertical, much like the way baby birds feed, and then swallow. I have been able to swallow up to 12 pills at one time with this method. Hope this helps.

They are not chewable, the pills are made of cellulose and water, but drink them with a glass of water, and you should be ok. The results are well worth the little difficulty swallowing the pills.

They certainly can be crushed. I have previously taken the 1000 mg tablets and cut them in half in order to just take 500 mg. I however have not ever crushed one completely and taken it but I don't see why that would be any problem. Hope this is helpful..

I also have problems with swallowing, but I have no problem with these. They are a narrow cellulose capsule about 3/4 of an inch long. If swallowing is a problem the capsules can be pulled apart and the ingredients mixed with food or a liquid. I highly recommend these.

yes, they are a pretty good size...but i did not have any difficulty swallowing them. i dont have problems swallowing pills though, not sure if anyone else had any issues!
