Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Hi, i have got some 250mg capsules. I would like to split the dosage to 50mg but i dont have any spare capsules to divide them into and i would like to start the protocol tonight. Can i split it into 5 and just take each one with water in no capsule, or does it need a capsule to enter the body correctly. Or whats the best for me to go about this. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the really tiny ones (smaller than milk thistle) then spliting the capsules wont be easy. Is the dose for an adult or child. > > Can i split it into 5 and just take each one with water in no capsule, > or does it need a capsule to enter the body correctly.

You can take DMSA outside the capsule as the capsule will just dissolve inside you if you took it. is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I do manage to obtain around 12.5mg doses from the 100mg capsules of DMSA using a razor blade and a mirror. I think 50mg is too high for many people. > > Hi, i have got some 250mg capsules.

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2008 Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 H, Glad you know not to take them as is... Consider getting the 25 or 100 mg caps in the future. You can buy them without a prescription from www.vrp.com (I'm guessing you've gotten these via prescription.) You can buy empty capsules at most health food stores and some sell a gadget for filling capsules.
