Can a folic acid tablet be crushed?

Yes, folic acid tablets can usually be crushed or cut into smaller pieces. You can then mix them with a little liquid (such as water, juice, or milk) or food (such as yogurt or applesauce) if you have difficulty swallowing them whole. It's important to check with your healthcare provider or pharmacist to make sure that crushing the tablets won't affect their effectiveness.
