Guest guest Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Hello Everyone, Since I have only been able to get hold of 100 mg DMSA capsules here in Europe, I now face the problem of dividing these capsules into smaller doses. I have bought empty gelatin capsules and tried dividing the powder from one 100 mg capsule into smaller piles, but this seems very inaccurate. Is it possible to simply mix the powder from one 100 mg capsule into, say, 4 deciliters of water and then marking the deciliter lines on a transparent plastic bottle? I would then drink one deciliter every three hours to get my 25 mg dose. What I'm wondering is: will the DMSA be significantly degraded during this time (4x3=12 hours, stored at room temperature)?
