You are not to crush or chew these and take them on an empty stomach...they are kinda big looking, but they are coated so they slide right down. I don't like taking pilss either, but no problem with these...I can swallow 2 at a time now!!!!

I don't know how I do it, but I swallow all 4 at a time! No problema... and I have been a freak about swallowing pills most of my life. Cancer changed all that, I guess. I no longer meet a pill that gives me problems.
