Hi. I was looking at Levsin on webmd.com, because I want to try it after everyone says it works...
But it says 'Do not crush, chew, or open the capsules. Swallow them whole. They are specially formulated to release slowly in your body.'
Did your doctor tell you it's ok to chew them? It'd be nice to have them work fast like that...




They actually have a version of levsin that is sublingual, meaning you are supposed to let it disolve underneith your tongue. I have this version and love it! They tried to give me the pills once and I made them redo the prescription so I could have the fast disolving ones again. I can feel the effects by the time its done disolving.

Just took one 5 mins ago for some pain I'm having and already feel drugged.
