I was going to start to try taking MSM glucosamine because people said they've had success with it here, but the capsules are gigantic and I have a pill swallowing phobia...is it okay if I take the powder out of the capsule and take it that way? Would that cause me any harm?

I would think the best person to ask would be your pharmacist:)Bri.

You might try putting the capsule towards the back of your tongue, fill your mouth with water, then tip your chin down before swallowing. I know it sounds strange, but it really helps the pill go down.

When I first started taking meds I had the same problem.
I have to put water (or whatever you drink)in your mouth tip your head back so the water doesn't spill out, then put in your pill and swallow.Now I can take more than one and usually just that much water.

Hope this helps
