Why did you choose this?

I’ve always struggled with cold sores and ever since I started taking L lysine I rarely get them!

It supports my immune system.

How large are these to swallow? Are they capsules or tablets? I have a large gag reflex and large, especially tablets, are difficult for me to swallow.
How large are the capsules? I'm going for 500 mg. rather than 1000 mg. which I bought elsewhere. I've never actually seen a horse pill, but I imagine they are about the same as the 1000 mg. white pills I've tried to swallow. :) lol Looking for ease in swallowing. Can take two to get the higher dose. Thank you to all who reply!
My vet wants my cat to go on this amino acid. He is not pill friendly. So was wondering if these capsules are liquid or powder?

Best Answer:  These pills are a powder.

When I had a dog I would wrap a pill in cheese and throw so he would catch it in his mouth. I think it would go down before he knew what was in it.

I hope this helps.

Is this pill smooth or chalky? Is it easy to swallow or on the large side? Thank you!

Best Answer:  This supplement is in a capsule form which would be smooth. It can be on the larger side, however.

HOW BIG IS THE PILL? NORMAL OR LARGE?
