the magnet, the capsule LEDs will begin blinking,
indicating that the capsule has been activated. If the
capsule has not activated within 20 seconds after removing
it from the package, place the battery-end of the capsule
against the magnet in the package and repeat step 4 again.

capsule moves through the digestive tract. The patient
should consult the physician if they have questions about
