I read or heard that the drug wont be effective when the outer layer is broken, but it will continue to work properly when taken whole. This is supposed to take 2-3 years before it is complete. Hope that helps. Janie The mind is like a magnet. The quality and strength of your thoughts will determine the quality and strength of what you attract into your life. Therefore it is important to develop and maintain a positive mental attitude about everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
