How do you crush your pills?

[Gadzukz]

I have been hamering Freya's Lysine inside a ziploc bag, the pill gets crushed but the bag is useless so can only be used once. I was wondering if anyone had a better way?

Some use a mortar and pastel - I use a pill crusher I found at the drug store that was only $2 or so.

Hmmmmm Piull crusher for $2 or so...sounds way easier than the Mortar and Pestel...plus it leaves it clean for the mint in my Mojitos! Gets annoying having to clean it all the time!!!

What is a Mojitos? lol

 

[holly_savage]

Mmmmm Lysine Mojitos...probably good for our immune systems too right?


A Mojito is traditionally made of five ingredients: white rum, sugar (traditionally sugar cane juice), lime, sparkling water and mint. The original Cuban recipe uses spearmint or "Yerba buena", a much lighter mint variety very popular in the island. Its combination of sweetness, refreshing citrus and mint flavors are intended to complement the potent kick of the rum, and have made this clear highball a popular summer drink.

how big are the pills you are crushing? If they are small, these work great and no crushing required! My little guy thought he was getting the best treat ever! Little did he know I was sneaking him his meds! You can find them at any big pet store (like Petsmart, etc)...

Thanks, but they are too big to sneak to her. I did buy the pill crusher at wal mart for 4.15, so its all good now!
