SEVERO electric pill grinder
From pill to powder in only a few seconds!
Many people have difficulties swallowing pills. Grinding pills and adding liquid facilitates the intake of medication.
Manually grinding medication is time consuming work, which frequently leads to complaints of physical pain. There is also a risk of inhaling aerosols from the medication being transformed.
Severo – quick and easy
All of these problems are a thing of the past with the Severo Pill Grinder. It’s very simple. Put the medication in the SeveroCup, then place them into the grinder, close the door and within seconds the medication is available in a powder-form. The medication can also be mixed with a liquid using the same SeveroCup.
Safe and cost effective
Did you know that grinding a Tylenol uses a force of over 21 kg (46.2 lbs). Electrical grinding is time saving and prevents complaints of physical pain. This means more time for the patients, which is an important profit in a time of increasing patient numbers and tighter economy. Grinding in a closed compartment reduces the risk of inhaling medication powder. Save with the Severo.
Nowadays the Severo pill grinder is used in hospitals and health care facilities worldwide.

FAQ - SEVERO® Electric Pill Crusher
What is the SEVERO® Electric Pill Crusher?
The SEVERO® is a professional electric pill crusher designed to quickly and hygienically crush tablets into a fine powder. It is ideal for use in hospitals, long-term care facilities, nursing homes, pharmacies, and home care settings.
Its closed crushing system helps reduce the release of medication dust, minimizing the risk of inhalation and cross-contamination.
How does the SEVERO® Electric Pill Crusher work?
Place the tablet into a SEVERO® crushing cup and insert the cup into the device. Press the start button and the tablet will be crushed into a fine powder within seconds.
The resulting powder can be mixed with liquid according to medication administration guidelines and, when clinically appropriate, may be administered through a feeding tube.

The SEVERO® crushes most tablets into a fine, consistent powder within a few seconds. This helps streamline medication administration workflows and saves valuable nursing time.

No. Not all medications are suitable for crushing. Extended-release, modified-release, enteric-coated, and certain specialty medications should only be crushed according to the manufacturer's instructions and facility protocols.
Always consult the medication guidelines and prescribing information before crushing any medication.
What is the difference between the SEVERO® with and without the magnetic mounting plate?
