How Should I Store Cut Finasteride Pills?
I know that with regard to cut up 5 mg finasteride pills, you recommend that pills are only cut up one at a time, to avoid excess hydration of the pill fragments with vapour in the air.
I have a question about the storage of the three pill fragments each time a pill is cut (assuming it is cut into quarters). Right now, I just leave the pill fragments inside the pill cutter, but would it be more effective to store them in an airtight container for three days? Or does it not make a considerable difference, given the short timeframe of storage?
Thanks.
It might not make that much of a difference if you’re cutting one pill at a time (which is what you should do), but I would err on the side of caution and store the fragments in an airtight pill bottle.
So does this make a difference then? Ive been breaking tablets one at a time and just keeping them on my tabletop before consumption, is this likely to make a difference?
I buy empty gelatin capsules (available at any health food store) and place the cut pills in the capsules, then store then in a pill container. It makes the pill fragments easier to swallow and keeps them airtight. I usually cut two pills at a time in order to last for a week.
