Question for those of you using things like s. boulardii and making your own capsules...
We got a kit with several tools/spoons that help fill capsules easily instead of aiming just with your hands. We don't need to pill our cat, but we sprinkle the small amount we use into his food at an amount he'll not reject. We use a few empty capsules to store the quarter capsule we need at a time. But my question is, what do those of you who make your own capsules do to actually, mechanically, brush up and scoop up with little lab spoons the medication without losing any? It's very hard picking up enough powder on a tray and not leaving any behind. I understand there are machines that do 50 at a time eliminating the need to scoop anything but as I said we don't pill him so we have no need to produce 50 capsules. We also don't use the boulardii that frequently for that intricate of a capsule production system. Just thought we'd ask what others do if they use boulardii or other medication powders like us.
