Pick up one end of the bottle. Gingerly pull off the cap of one end. If you do not feel like you can get a good grip on it, then try using your fingernails to pry open the lip of the lid instead.

Place the pill bottle in-between two pillows on either side of you (or some other soft surface). This will help break it open without chipping or breaking your nails – which would be very painful! Just press down with either hand onto each pillow for about 10 seconds, and then repeat 2 more times on each side. After this has succeeded, take another pill bottle and try again if needed until you are successful in opening it.

If these steps don’t seem to work or aren’t possible due to the strength of the bottle’s lid, then there is another option for you to try. You can rest it on a hard surface and apply pressure to its cap with your foot. After placing it in that position, just lean back and put some weight onto your heel – just enough so that the cap pops open.

After it has successfully opened, remove your foot and you should have a fully-intact pill. In conclusion, there are many different ways that you can open a pill bottle without breaking it. So don’t worry if you think you’re not strong enough or your nails aren’t long enough – there are options for everyone!
