Hello vanities, I came across a similar discussion quite a long time ago. For me, I will throw away the tablet. I know it is not good to waste thing like this but on the other hand, I don't feel it is clean to consume the tablet if you dropped it on the floor.

Hello vanities, You don't have to worry and I don't really mind if they minus few cents from me just because of that It was quite sometimes ago and I don't think any of us can really post a discussion which is not similar to any of the previous discussions. I, myself can't even remember all my own discussions...

If the floor is clean, just swept I would not throw it away. However if it dirty yes I would throw it away since it contains germs. © ronaldinu 2008

nope, i would take it because i cannot afford to waste even one pill by throwing it out. i dust it off quite well and hope for the best. i hope that my stomach acids will kill any germs that are on the pill lol :-)

Since I take my pills in the bathroom, I would definitely throw the pill away. Take care and maybe you should take the pill over a bowl or something so when you drop it, you can pick it up and take it. Take care

Probably i would still take it into my mouth. I have this thinking that if i drop something, like candies, nuts or anything that has no wrapper anymore, as long as i dropped it on the floor, then i think it would still be safe to take. Specially now, that everything is too expensive and that life is getting harder and harder, i think it would be just practical to not throw the pill.
