So I recently purchased 100 25 mg pills of Aromasin. My original intent was to purchase 12.5 mg tabs and take them one every day starting in week 3 of a Test only 12 week cycle. However, in my impatientness I purchased what was available, which was 25 mg. Now these aren’t 25 mg tabs so I can’t exactly break them in half to ingest 12.5 mg. So I guess my question is can I take that capsule apart and ingest only half the powder, to equal 12.5 mg a day? This may be an ignorant question. At this point I don’t even know if I should start the cycle until I get 12.5 mg tabs.

AnonI would split the cap and ingest half the powder. The aromasin is scattered in the filler, theres no way of know 100% how much you are taking but its the best you can do. If you notice signs of low estrogen such as dry/creeky joints, low libido or acne outbreaks then I would lower the aromasin dose.
if your worried about your dosage accuracy in capsules, you should try the liquid version instead, much easier to dose.
yeah i guess i never thought of that thanks
just out of curiosity, where did you get your pills? you can send me a pm.
Just be careful over the first week or too. Try to gauge how you feel. If they are caps they probably have filler in them so you could possibly ingestion too much or not enough. Just be careful.
could you explain this to me? a filter for what ? What sides should i look for if i choose to go this route?
Filler not filter. A lot of times when you receive pills that are caps a company/supplier will fill the cap full so the cap won't bend or break. That means the powder on the inside isn't 100% the compound you need. It is filled with other non essential ingredients to fill the cap up. So if you decide to take half the pills powder there is a good chance instead of getting half the required amount you want you have the chance to get more or less. You need to monitor signs of high or low estrogen if you plan on taking the AI this way.
Some signs of low E are irritability, headaches, low Libido, achey joints,fluctuating sleep patterns, and sometimes dry lips.
High E you will notice water retention, high blood pressure, lethargic behavior, tiredness, nervousness and possible anxiety
You can take half of the powder out of the capsule and either mix it in a bit of water or put it in a thin piece of tissue paper to take it... The capsules aren't time released so you will be fine taking it however it works best for you.
alright thanks. i will stand by for a few days just to see what others have to say. hopefully its right along the lines of your advice. i really dont want to have to buy more, but i will if i have to
