Ezy Dose Pill Crusher

A twist crusher with a ridged face and a storage compartment in the base, in green or an assorted colour. Buyers who grind for a feeding tube say the teeth take a dense tablet where a smooth mechanism slips, and that the wide knurled edge is what lets an arthritic hand do the turning.

The powder comes out fine but not uniform: a few small pieces survive, which matters for a tube and not for a spoonful of applesauce. Rinse the cup between medicines so nothing rides from one dose into the next, and take the powder straight away rather than storing it.

This page is general information about medication tools, not medical advice. Whether a tablet may be split or crushed, how much of a medicine to give and what to do about a missed dose are questions for the pharmacist who filled the prescription and the doctor who wrote it.

One of 7 on the pill crushers shelf in the Ezy Dose catalogue. Capacities describe aspirin-sized tablets, and the way we keep the figures current is set out on how we update the catalogue.
