Is this an extended release capsule?

no, it is not; but, it did not seem to make a difference in the effectiveness.
1484481
No, not at any place on the label does it indicate that it is in an extended release form.

No. It is like taking a vitamin in that it helps but is not geared for slow release like a pain medicine. If you want more effect, you have to take it several times a day. There is a maximum mg per day but I can't remember what it is. I started with 3 (or 4) per day and now I take it once in the morning. If I start to feel clogged up again, I increase the number of times I take it. Hope this helps.

it is not extended release as far as iknow from all that i've read. the co. that sells it (guai-aid) can be contacted.

No, it is not an extended release capsule. You can take as many as you need throughout the day without fear of side effects. Not so with Mucinex.

No, it is not, but it still works for me. I believe 2400 mg. is the maximum allowable dose per 24 hours. Usually 2 per day are sufficient for me, one in the morning, one at bedtime.

In my opinion, I don't believe it has the same effect. The capsule is not very big easy to swallow.

Yes. It is a capsule. I use Pill Pockets Chicken flavor, flatten them with my finger and wrap the capsule with it. I then wet it with water, and pill the kitty. He's been on it for a year, two pills a day (1 in the am, 1 in the pm). He had a forearm injury last August and he also has arthritis. He's about 13 1/2 pounds and 17 yrs. old. It has made all the difference. He's like a kitten again.

It is a small sofftgel like a capsule. It is going down very easily. I have a problem too with big pills. I never had a problem with these pills.

It's a coated capsule and I don't have any problems. I've found if I take a BIG gulp of water I have no problems getting pills down. It is a larger capsule, however.

I do not believe that they are timed or prolonged release tabs. Nothing on the containers I have here at home indicate that. Hope this helps!

Hi Gail:they are a capsule. Not the largest, but not the smallest. You can always open and put in a bite of food if needed. One A.M and one PMI think my husbands knees are some better since taking these and another knee one before this. I liked this too because I dont have to order in 30 days or ? because you get 3 bottles at once. Hope they keep that up. Yes, they are a smooth capsule not a dry tablet. Good luck. Jean

No not at all, normal gel capsule size. And gel capsules are easier to swallow, ive never had a problem with it.

That information is not provided on the label. The seven ingredients have been blended into a powder which is then placed into the capsule. The blend is proprietary.

No, just take the whole capsule, it dissolves later on once you've ingested it.

I don't know. My doctor has never made a distinction between extended or immediate release when he prescribed guaifenesin. I wish I could be more helpful!

Yes, it's a capsule not a tablet though if it helps......They seem to help too!

any medication can be crushed, capsules can be opened up and placed into applesauce or pudding, pills that are extended release should not be crushed they loose the extended release.

I don't know but they are not what I would consider a small pill. They are capsules.

It is a capsule filled with powdered material, not a pill. Usual size - about 3/4 of an inch to an inch.

The only possibility of that would be in the capsule itself. I would check with the manufacturer for that.

The bottle I ordered came in Capsule form. I have yet to see this product come as tablets and I, too, do not want nor like tablets.
