## Questions & Answers

**Q: IMPORTANT: Lysine bottle pictured reads "capsules" - BUT description reads "serving size: 1 tablet." WHICH IS IT??**
A: I have tried both the 1000mg and 500mg. The 1000mg are rather large tablets which I found hard to swallow so I switched to the 500mg which are smaller capsules.

**Q: Are the 500 mg Tablets about 1/2 the size (thickness) of the 1000 mg Tablets?**
A: I've never seen the 1000 mg tablets. I just measured and the 500 mg capsules are 1 inch long and 1/4 inch in diameter. Hope this helps.

**Q: How big are the pills**
A: They are tiny....if you are a horse.
If not, have a tall glass of water ready to wash them down.

**Q: Are these in capsule form? I've tried the tablets and are too hard to swallow, but sometimes when the bottle says capsule it is in actualilty a tablet**
A: The bottle here says tablets. I purchased capsules. I also purchased the powder. The capsules were capsules. Easy to swallow.
