Hi, I would like to ask if the capsules with saw palmetto need to be swallowed ...

If you are not able to swallow the capsules whole, then yes - you can open them and pour out the contents. However, please make sure that you take the full dose during this procedure. Some specialists are of the opinion that such a preparation may not be absorbed as it should. The capsule is designed to reach the stomach, and sometimes further to the intestines and release the substance that is to be absorbed. By pouring out the contents, we lead to a situation that part of the active substance settles for some time in the throat and esophagus. It is also treated longer with hydrochloric acid from the stomach and digestive enzymes. This may affect the absorption and effective action of the preparation. Please also remember to drink your medication with water. Warm drinks may cause part of the capsule to dissolve already in the mouth or change the rate of dissolution. It is similar with fruit juices. Fruits can cause side effects. Finally, remember to take your medication as prescribed by your doctor. Special drug dispensers with daily or week-long division may be helpful.
