This device automatically grinds pills into a fine powder that can be combined with drink or food for easier consumption. Ideal for those who are unable or unwilling to swallow large pills, the powered device crushes up to two pills at once in its grinder and deposits the powder into a collection tray. About the size of a television remote, the unit stores unobtrusively in a purse or toiletry kit. The grinding gear cartridge is removable and dishwasher safe. Please consult a physician to ensure your pills can be ground. Not intended for use with hard-coated, time-release, or gel cap pills. Requires three AAA batteries. 5" L x 2 1/2" W x 1" D. (4 oz.)
