First, find a clean, well-lit workspace. A smooth, non-porous surface like a clean plate or countertop is ideal.
Tools for Capsule Opening
You’ll need a small, sharp utensil for opening the capsule. A clean, sharp knife (like a butter knife) or a small, clean pair of scissors works well. Avoid dull instruments to prevent crushing the capsule. A small spoon can help manage the powder once released. Prepare a tiny, clean container – a small bowl or medicine cup – to hold the powder. Tissues or paper towels are handy for cleanup.
Before starting, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. This minimizes contamination. Finally, have a glass of water ready to take the medication with.
