trouble swallowing

[Guest guest]

I have trouble swallowing. I'm concerned about purchasing pelleted

Minocin because I will not be able to swallow a capsule. Can I break

it open & swallow the contents?

Any suggestions?

I have found a doctor to prescribe AP, but need to decide which to

purchase.

Thank you,

I would stay away from something with dairy because it reduces the

efficiency of the Minocin

Cooky is right, try to get something that will help the pellets slide down

with limited contact with your esophagus, since the medicine can seriously

burn. That is why we are advised to stay upright after taking it to make

sure it doesn't come up again. You should have a little leeway until the

pellets dissolve.

Take care,

Ute
