Flying to Salt Lake

Tuesday the 1st I am going to SLC for three weeks to help my Darcie out and do some Family History I sure would love to meet any at the Family History libary and we could brown bag it. I have a ? when taking my night meds I swallowed my capsuel I have always opened and taken it that way. What will happen. Thanks Saralan

Saralan I only live 3 1/2 hours away from Salt Lake and I wish I could join you. Unfortunately it won't be possible for me to go - Darn. Sure sounds like fun. It would be nice if someone could meet you. About your question. I'm a little confused about what you're saying. Are you saying that you have always opened your capsule first and then taken the med (yuck, yuck, yuck taste wise - brave girl) and then you actually swallowed the capsule whole this time? I always swallow mine whole. The ones that aren't chewable that is. I think I read on the main board that sometimes we run the risk of the capsule passing through and not dissolving completely if we just swallow it. Makes sense that we run that risk because we have a decreased amount of stomach acid to help dissolve the whole capsule. I guess only our lab results will show if we're absorbing or not. Personally for me. I swallow them whole and take my chances. Have fun at the Family History library. Melody
