• Question : Do the capsules open easily?
  Answer : I am guessing that you are asking because you have trouble swallowing capsules or pills, just so you know these are very small for capsules. Probably half the size (if not less) than most other Omeprozole type capsules I've taken, so swallowing these shouldn't be an issue. If that doesn't work, then yes, I just tried to separate 1 of my capsules and it did come apart pretty easily by lightly pinching top and bottom halves, and spinning slowly in opposite directions whole carefully pulling apart. I suppose you could mix with apple sauce or something if this is your only option.
• Question : If you do subscribe and save, does this stabilize pricing?
  Answer : If you do subscribe and save, you'll get the discount, but they price can still fluctuate. You get to review items and can skip or cancel completely if you don't need or want it in a particular month.
• Question : For the manufacturer: Can you please bottle these in one bottle to reduce waste?
  Answer : There is a FDC regulation prohibiting the sale of OTC Omeprazole in amounts greater than 14 doses per package. They believe people should not take it indefinitely (forever) without a doctor's prescription. Selling multiple 14 dose bottles gets around that regulation.
