💊 When Was the Capsule Invented?
Did you know that the first capsule — an alternative to traditional tablets — was invented back in 1834?
It was created by French pharmacist François Achille Barnabé Mothes, who wanted to make medicine easier to swallow and more effective.
Today, capsules are used all over the world because they:
✅ Dissolve faster in the body
✅ Don’t have a bitter taste
✅ Help protect sensitive ingredients from stomach acid
A small invention that changed modern medicine forever! 🌍
