The Fibro-Care Cal tablets are standard tablet size, in the long shape with a slight aqueous coating to make it easier to swallow. Most people who prefer tablets have no difficulty swallowing them. Just be sure to drink water beforehand to moisten your throat, then with the tablet when swallowing to "float" it down, and afterward to make sure it gets to your tummy. I hope this information is helpful and let us know when you try the tablets what you think.
