Medicine that is in a capsule that is supposed to be swallowed whole can be dangerous if you take them apart.They are ment to dissolve slowly in the stomach (that is why the medicine is in a capsule) and if you take them apart they start to take effect too soon and might cause overdose or other harm.
Perhaps this is not the case with antibiotics, I donīt know.
