Hello,

Pills covered with a plastic cover are called capsules and they are swallowed as they are. You do not chew on them. You just swallow them with water.
Tetralysal should be taken with a glass of water to help it go down to the stomach.

I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
