Guest guest Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I used to make herbal pills from powders with a pillmaker and would mix the herbs with some honey and some kelp powder to aid cohesion, roll them out like pastry dough to a thickness and then cut them out with the tool, and let them dry a bit. but the honey acts as a preservative and as long as they were taken soon, and not forgotten somewhere, and kept sealed in fridge or in the cool, I never had a problem. Alternatively you can instruct patient's to mix them themselves into a "dough ball" and then when time comes to take their dose, to pinch off a pea sized or larger amount which you'd have to work out previously equivalences to a capsule. Usually I would say 2 "peas" for one capsule. This however will depend on the consistency, density of the powder. Or you can sell them the capsules and they can capsule their own, while watching tv etc. Most won't want to do this of course, but some might.
