Due to the risk of adverse reactions such as irritation or ulceration of the lining of the oesophagus, Tetralysal capsules should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. They should not be opened and combined with food. You do not mention the age of your son, but it is worth knowing that in children under 12 years of age, the use of Tetralysal is contraindicated due to the risk of permanent discoloration of the enamel. We wrote about how to use tablets and capsules correctly in the text: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-stosowac-tabletki-i-kapsulki Below is also a link to a page that allows you to track the availability and reservation of Tatralysal in pharmacies: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/78293/tetralysal-150-mg-kapsulki/apteki

The capsule of Tetralysal can not be opened and poured into yogurt, for example. The capsule is constructed in such a way that the active substance reaches the appropriate section of the gastrointestinal tract and does not damage structures such as the esophagus.
