How large are the pills? I hate taking pills and I don't want to buy this product if the pills are too large.

I don't have any to look at right now, but if I remember correctly, they are average to small in size. I would not recommend Dr. Whitaker's Probiotic Essentials Gold because it is a very large capsule (eventhough it is a good product).

I have the same problem, these are smaller than most vits I take, I have never gagged or choked on them. They are capsules, not hard pill, so easier for me.

My 6 year old takes these just fine with something to drink. They are capsules not tabs, so you could always open it if you wanted to. They also have a children's chewable if that would be easier for you.

This didn't always come refrigerated to me from the shipper, so I stopped ordering from amazon because the product loses potency when warm.

Not exactly sure how to describe the size of the pills...I do not think they are big. Here is a link to a pic (i hope) to show the size of the pills: http://safegce.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/109595303_616.jpg

The capsules are quite large, I would say they are an inch long and 1/4 inch wide. If they go down long ways, it's not too bad, but if they go sideways, it's torture to swallow. I wish they were a little smaller, but they are pretty effective! Hope that helps!

Hi Hi Winn. They are small to medium size. I usually have to take pills one at a time but these I can take 4 at a time. All the Best.

It has been a while, but as I recall, they were fairly large. My dog was taking them so I don't recall too much about the pill size. Sorry!

they are not as big as some, but are a bit bigger then I would like them to be...one thing that really helps me get my supplements down (I too have a hard time sometimes with pills they stick), but first swallow some liquid, then put capsule in your mouth put in more liquid swish it enough that capsule is wet and then look down when you swallow as capsule pop up in the water where as tablets sink...this will help it go up, over and down your throat then of course finish with more liquid...hope this helps! This is a great product though really helps with gas, bloat and inability to digest food...:) they are not as big as some, but are a bit bigger then I would like them to be...one thing that really helps me get my supplements down (I too have a hard time sometimes with pills they stick), but first swallow some liquid, then put capsule in your mouth put in more liquid swish it enough that capsule is wet and then look down when you swallow as capsule pop up in the water where as tablets sink...this will help it go up, over and down your throat then of course finish with more liquid...hope this helps!

They are a good size meaning that I wouldn't recommend if you have trouble with pills already. You also have to take 2. I used to feel like it was lodged in my throat after taking it.

They are about the size of your multi-vitamin that comes in a capsule. So bigger but not a "horse" pill. I have troubles swallowing big pills and I haven't had a problem with these ones.

Sharon, the pills are easy for me to swallow. My doctor had started me out with so ethi g from their office but it was huge and had a really strong after taste. I found these pills and they are half the size of the recommended ones". I would say they are less than 1/2inch in length and about 1/3 inch in diameter. They go down smoothly. Hope this helps as they really seem to do the job.

I just had another look. They are not really large. They are about medium size as far as average pill sizes go. And they are smooth and curved. They do go down easy with half a glass of Almond milk.

They're big. I'd call them Horse pills. Do not buy these because you will have a tough time swallowing them. Very unpleasant product to swallow. Wish they would make them smaller.

I guess "large" is a relative term. I am able to swallow them without difficulty because they are capsules and not tablets or pills. They're not quite as wide as a multivitamin but about as long.

It's not bigger than regular capsules. I have a hard time swallowing big pills too and I never had a hard time with these.

The pills are large. Not a capsule. They are not scored, but likely could be cut in half.

They are about the size of a 325mg asprin. I have not had an incident of the pill sticking in my throat while swallowing them. I hope this helps you. If not, contact me again. joyce
