Pill Crusher

Ideal for those who have difficulty swallowing pills

Directions:

• 1. Unscrew the crusher cap and place tablets into container.
• 2. Screw the crusher cap down tightly against the tablets.
  – Then, with a firm hold on the crusher cap, rotate the crusher cap back and forth to crush the tablets.
  – Repeat this back-and-forth movement until a uniform powder has been achieved. Each time the cap is rotated back and forth, increase the forward rotation to increase the crushing pressure on the tablets.
  – When the cap can no longer be rotated down onto the tablets, back the rotation off one or two revolutions and tap the container on a table to redistri- bute the powder.
  – Repeat the back and forth crushing rotation of the cap.
  – Do this several times to achieve an extremely fine powder.
  – Remove the cap to empty powdered tablets from container.
• 3. To store medication, unscrew bottom tablet container cover and fill container with tablets.
  – Replace the cover tightly.

Note: Enteric-coated tablets are intended to be swallowed whole and should never be crushed before taking.

Caution: Keep this and all medicine out of a child’s reach.
