The "00" empty gelatin caps, depending on the powder, can hold between 546 - 1092 mg. These two-piece gelatin capsules are derived from beef and pork sources. Kosher and Halal vendor certified.
I take Allegra D. It is coated with a strong paper that prevents my intestinal tract from absorbing this pill. It goes through my tract intact. So I am forced to pulverize the pill and pick out the paper and then putting the powder into a gel cap. Viola! I now get the full benefit of Allegra D.
