Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic.

Yes, the drug is usually prepared in a form which is hard and it needs to be digested in the duodenum to work effectively hence , it is made hard,

You also get the drug in syrup form.You can ask for the same in the pharmacy.

Wish you good health.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM!
Thanks for posting your query. I am happy to address your questions. Livolin are soft-gelatin capsules and need to be stored at a temperature not exceeding 30°C and to protect from direct sunlight. If they have become hard will recommend you to get it changed, as maybe the storage condition has modified it. Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions, I will be happy to help.
Thanks
