Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 it's me again with another question -- in my wls support group we do the " spit test " to see if a pill will dissolve in our pouches... put some spit & warm water into a cup and drop the pill in. if it dissolves within 20 minutes then we feel secure it will dissolve in our pouches & we'll get the medicine. someone brought up the fact that the insides of our bodies remain at 98.6 degrees while our spit/water mix doesn't, thus making the spit test inaccurate... anyone else do this? thanks in advance, kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 6, 2003 Report Share Posted May 6, 2003 I do the spit test. I use that method with tablets. With caps, I dump the contents & melt 'em " one site " , so to speak! So far, nothing has failed those tests that I've tried, so I haven't had to worry about conclusions Thanks, Vitalady, Inc.
