Writing on gelcaps?

[illiquid]

Making some calibrated gelcaps of different dosages, what's the best way to color/indicate on a gelcap? Any particular sharpie for example?

 

[laugh]

get different colour caps?

colour the ingredients as opposed to the cap (i think the alcohol/liquid of a marker would dissolve/melt the cap)

maybe just putting the different dosages in different bags?

instead of caps just do up little paper envelopes of varying coloured paper.

Good suggestions, but i'm stuck with 300 clear gelatin caps atm

How bout some inert colored powder/sugar to mix in after to differentiate substance?

Now how bout some ways to differentiate amounts too? Say a 150mg vs a 220mg etc, of several different things.

Normal food coloring works for coloring any drug you want, just mix it with the powder. I've done it before putting mephedrone in caps.

If the caps are big enough you can just use a small felt-tipped pen.

yeah I use permanent markers to write on gel caps, it hasn't cause any problems

When I want to mark gelcaps I either wrap some in cigarette rolling paper or put a tiny speck of black paper in some of them
