yes you can, I am not sure what they would taste like though. It does not hurt to try.

I wouldn't but are not hard to swallow just take them with your favorite drink...they really work and not hard on your stomach.

Not at all. They are soft and gel like. Not exactly small, but I've never had an issue swallowing. Hope this helps!

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.

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

The capsule is about 3/4" long and probably diameter about the size of a Centrum vitamin. I can't recommend opening the capsule since I'm not a doctor. If you take it with a mouthful of water, you should be able to get it down. I have been taking these about 4 months or so and it has really helped with my digestion. Take one capsule at a time, don't be nervous and take a mouthful of water and then follow with more water. If you're afraid of it getting stuck, you might try coating it in Olive oil first.

They are a large capsules. I don't have any problems with them. However, if you have trouble swallowing, that may be a problem.

I disagree that it's a large capsule and I have a lot of trouble swallowing. However, any powdered magnesium in a capsule can be sprinkled on applesauce or mixed into yogurt, etc. I often choke on capsules and twist them open. The capsule is just a transporter. You can use magnesium in many forms and I've even soaked my feet in it (in a cheaper form)

I, too, have problems swallowing larger pills and capsules. This is a small gelcap, about one-quarter inch long. It's narrow and rounded. Since it is a gelcap, you can hold it between your fingers to warm it and it will be even softer and more flexible.

They are fairly big. If you have trouble swallowing capsules, these may not be for you.

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

The capsules are a bit hard to swallow by themselves, I gulp mine down with my morning coffee. It works for me.

The capsules are about the size of a multivitamin. However, they are slippery so the go down pretty easily with water. Do not try to swallow without liquid or they might get caught in your throat.

Linda, these are caps that are small. But if you have trouble swallowing pills you might try taking them with yogurt or a soda. I've heard that they help. GOOD LUCK !!!

About .75 of an inch. I choke swallowing pills much smaller, but have no problemwith these capsules. To swallow a capsule easily tilt your head slightly forward, the capsule will float on top of the liquid and will be much easier to "go down".
