Superior method? Gelatin capsules or oblate discs instead of drinking SN or powdered N solution, why not?

[lifeisbutadream]

I am interested in gelatin capsules, but in my case not with SN but with (old) powdered N. This would have been the way the old original N sleeping pills came. I don't know why this wouldn't work and bypass the obnoxious taste and preclude, or greatly reduce, the possibility of throwing up. I tested two capsules with powdered N and it worked perfectly. I don't know why it wouldn't work with either.

Yet another method that I would think should work with either powdered N or SN is putting the powder in soluble oblate discs and easily swallowing it that way.

Does anyone know of any reason why these wouldn't be superior methods? Does the PPH mention these methods?

One or two capsules, these most likely dissolve just fine. Experiences may vary, nevertheless, large amounts of pills/capsules is never a good idea. Attached are some studies that try to explain different aspects of it.

Pills of any form slow down and impede the progress of digestion and absorbtion. One of the biggest draws to these methods is the speed at which you're no longer conscious.

It's about time and overwhelming the body's defense mechanism as quickly as possible. Think of it as attacking a nodding of person by hard slapping versus gentle patting.

Seems then that multiple capsules is a bad idea, tho in the past when N was used in sleeping pills that's the way people accidentally or purposely CTB. But then what about the oblate method? They won't clump together. Possibly a problem, tho, in it acting too fast before one could get them all down, esp N.

I have read thar capsules are not a good idea with SN at least because of clumping, but an older post on here did suggest using the oblate discs or blate papes. I guess you would have to have several set up before drinking them but you still may not get enough time

How about THESE? Those are for pills - for a large enough amount of SN it would likely take too many of those, I think.
And it would be difficult to fill them anyway..
Do those blate papes work? Can't find anything like it here in Germany.

I'm searching for something that makes swallowing the SN more manageable for me.

looked it up, seem like good solutions. don't know if i'd try it

Caps would take too long to dissolve but the oblate discs dissolve very quickly. To the question of it is mentioned in the PPH, no it is not. I plan to use the PPH and similar protocols as closely as I can to avoid any mishaps or unintended consequences. But the question about oblate discs is a very interesting one I plan to research a little more as it does seem like a possible method which I had not thought of before (I am sure others have so I will also continue to research and dig more for my own educational purposes).
