@trishaanderson Putting the pills in applesauce or pudding is usually a good idea, but, these days it can be dangerous to cut pills in half or crush to be put in something. And capsules should never be opened. All these “rules” have to do with patient safety. For example: I crush a 12-hour heart medication pill (to slow the heart) and it works too quickly. A 12-hour pill works in 4 hours rather than 12 or in 1 hour! And imagine the side effects! So, better safe than sorry!
