Capsules exist in different sizes. The size used depends on the amount of Pharmacon per capsule. Capsules should always be fully filled. For this, the volume indication or the capacity indication per capsule size can be used. The volume and capacity of a capsule size can give small differences depending on the brand used. Likewise, old and new capsule sizes can vary a bit.
