Reviralis Capsules: Why It Is a Capsule, Not a Pill, Gummy or Drop
Reviralis capsules are the only form we know of: a vegetable-capsule dietary supplement in a 60-count bottle. The label says to take two capsules a day with water. We found no Reviralis gummies, drops or liquid. A capsule holds powder, so a 661 mg blend fits in about two capsules.

The form01
What form does Reviralis come in?
Reviralis comes as capsules only: a white 60-capsule bottle with a teal label. The shell is vegetable cellulose, and the label calls the product a dietary supplement.
Q: Is it a pill, a tablet or a capsule? A: A capsule. A capsule is a shell filled with powder. A tablet is pressed powder with no shell. People often say pills for both.
The label sets a serving at two capsules. A 60-capsule bottle is 30 servings, which is 30 days at the label's direction. The other ingredients are cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate and silicon dioxide.
Other forms02
Are there Reviralis gummies or drops?
We know of none. The label and the sales page we read describe capsules only, and neither mentions gummies, drops, a liquid or a powder.
Be careful with any listing that sells gummies or drops under the Reviralis name. We cannot vouch for a product we have not seen, and the order links on this site lead only to the capsule on the seller's sales page (Reviralis sales page). If you see another form, check its Supplement Facts panel against the one on the supplement facts page.
A different form means a different recipe. Gummies hold sugar and less powder, and drops hold alcohol or glycerin. A product with a different panel is a different product.
Compare03
How do capsules compare with pills, gummies and drops?
Capsules hold more powder than gummies and need no sugar, but they are larger to swallow than drops. The right form is the one you will take every day.
| Form | What it is | Strength | Watch for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Capsule (Reviralis) | Powder inside a shell | Holds a lot of powder; fits a 661 mg blend in two | Size to swallow |
| Tablet or pill | Pressed powder, no shell | Compact; fillers bind it | Hard to split or dissolve |
| Gummy | Gel with sugar | Easy to take | Sugar; fewer actives fit |
| Drops or liquid | Liquid dose | Dose by drop | Taste; preservatives |
Reviralis is a capsule only. The table describes forms in general, not other Reviralis products.
Taking capsules04
How should you take Reviralis capsules?
Take two capsules a day with an 8 oz glass of water, 20 to 30 minutes before a meal, as the label directs. Swallow them whole.
The pack and the sales page say one capsule a day. The label says two, and this site follows the label. Do not open the shell to take the powder. The label gives no direction for it.
The label also says to take it as your healthcare professional directs. Full notes are on how to take Reviralis.

What is inside a Reviralis capsule?
Each capsule holds half of a serving: half of each of the 22 vitamin and mineral amounts, plus about 330.5 mg of blend powder. The 18 blend names run from DMAE to phosphatidylserine.
The label prints no amount for any blend name. The first name is at least 36.7 mg per serving, and the rest are ceilings set by order (21 CFR 101.36, Supplement Facts Panel). The blend list below keeps the label order.
18 blend names (one 661 mg total, no single amounts)

From the Supplement Facts panel, in label order. The 22 lines print their amounts. The blend prints 661 mg for 18 names together, so the limits shown for them come from the order alone. Other ingredients (vegetable cellulose capsule, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide) are not part of the blend.
What it cannot tell you06
Does the capsule form change how well Reviralis works?
We do not know. No study compared this capsule with another form, and the label gives no release or absorption data.
A form can change how fast a dose reaches the body, but it cannot add a benefit the ingredients lack. No source we found shows that Reviralis, in any form, changes how often outbreaks happen. It is not an antiviral, and herpes has no cure (CDC, About Genital Herpes).
If a clinician prescribed an antiviral, keep taking it. Ask a healthcare provider before starting Reviralis if you are pregnant or nursing, have a medical condition or take a prescription medicine.

Questions about Reviralis capsules
Are Reviralis pills the same as capsules?
Yes in everyday speech, though Reviralis is a capsule, not a pressed tablet. The label calls it a 60-capsule bottle with a vegetable cellulose shell. People searching for Reviralis pills are looking for the same product described here.
Does Reviralis come as a gummy?
We know of no Reviralis gummy. The label and the sales page describe capsules only. If a listing sells gummies under the name, treat it as unverified and compare its Supplement Facts panel with the real label before you buy anything.
Are Reviralis drops sold anywhere?
Not that we know. Neither the label nor the sales page mentions drops or a liquid. The order links here lead only to the capsule on the seller's sales page, and we cannot vouch for any other form or seller.
Can you open a Reviralis capsule and mix it in a drink?
The label gives no such direction, so we do not advise it. It says to take two capsules with an 8 oz glass of water. If swallowing capsules is hard, ask a pharmacist before changing how you take any supplement.
How big are Reviralis capsules?
The label does not print capsule size or weight. By label arithmetic the 661 mg blend alone is about 330.5 mg per capsule, plus vitamins, minerals and fillers. A bottle's own capsules are the only reliable guide to size.
Are Reviralis capsules vegetarian?
The shell is listed as cellulose, a vegetable capsule. The label prints no vegetarian or vegan claim, and it does not name the source of every blend name, such as DHA. Ask the distributor if this matters to you.
