Given that i cant divide the capsule into portions, is the dosage still effective? 1mg e3d? thanks
Not true.
A filler will actually ensure accurate dosing, as the powder will be evenly distributed throughout the filler. This is how capsules are made and is the reason they are accurately dosed.
And of course a filler was used. Nobody is going to put 1mg of powder into a capsule that can hold 500mg.
I do not agree with this. Assuming this is coming from someone making their own caps, there is no way of knowing how well it is mixed. Filler does not bind to the medicine. The product could have easily been added first to the bottom of a capsule with filler added on top and every pill capped. This is not an evenly mixed substance. pouring it out and splitting it in half could still bring about three quarters of the medicine on one side with only a quarter on the other.
It is possible for the mixture to be even if it was completely mixed together but there is nothing to regulate if there has been any technique to ensure the product was homogenized.
Do you know how to make your own caps? Because it involves blending the filler and product evenly, then distributing that even mix throughout all your caps. If this wasn't done, then each capsule will contain a different amount of active, anyway.
And nobody is measuring out individual 1mg doses, then topping each cap off with filler. That takes a lab quality scale and would just be a huge hassle.
Disagree. As long as the proper dose exists within the capsule, it doesn't matter how the filler is distributed. If one were to pour it out and thoroughly mix it, it would then be ensured to be homogeneous. Then divide it up in half, thirds, or quarters and administer as desired.Agreed. they mix this stuff up in a vessel and make tablets 10,000 at a time.
