Chapter 149 Don't pour out the medicine in the capsule
Capsule is the medicament that medicine is packed in capsule, has hard capsule and soft capsule.Panax ginseng pills, quick-acting cold capsules, pioneermycin IV, etc. are hard capsules; cod liver oil pills, vitamin E capsules, vitex oil capsules, etc. are soft capsules.

When some people take capsule medicine, they feel that the capsule shell is superfluous and harmful to the human body, so they take the medicine by discarding the capsule.Actually this is incorrect.

First of all, the capsule is made of gelatin, which is soluble in water and stomach acid and is harmless to the human body.Secondly, the medicines in capsules are generally powders or particles that are irritating to the esophagus and gastric mucosa. They are easy to volatilize or lose in the mouth and are easily decomposed by salivary enzymes, and are very easy to choke into the trachea.The capsule not only protects the medicine, but also protects the digestive organs. Therefore, the capsule medicine cannot be taken after peeling off the shell.
