Best medical advice EVAR!

“Swallow one capsule once.”

Often I have found myself flummoxed over this very thing. “What quizzical quandary!” Quoth myself. “Confounded conundrum!” Cursed I, Capsule clutched in my clenched fist.
How many times must I take this tablet? Twice? thrice? Tens of thousands of times must I inbibe this insipid inoculation! Examining expelled excrement, extracting the ejected elixir that it might meliorate my myriad medical maladies with multiple passes!
Yet here, printed plainly upon the perforated packaging it proclaims different.

“Swallow one capsule once”

First shalt thou take out the Holy Pill.
Then, shalt thou swallow only once, no more, no less.
Once shalt be the times thou shalt swallow, and the times of the swallowing shall be once.
Twice shalt thou not swallow, nor either swallow never, excepting that thou then proceed to swallow once.
Thrice is right out.
