About This Clues Answer

We think the answer is "CAPLET" which means:

    noun
  • • A smooth-coated tablet (pill, as in medicine) shaped like a capsule, used as a tamper-resistant alternative to a capsule, or an easy-to-swallow alternative to regular tablets.
  • • A component of an interest rate cap, a derivative instrument that effectively prevents the interest payments on an otherwise variable-rate loan from exceeding an agreed level (the "cap"). each "caplet", analysable as a call option, covers one interest accrual period (such as three months); the whole interest rate cap is made up of a series of consecutive caplets.

An example sentence would be:

  • • "The pharmacist recommended a caplet for my headache."
  • • "I prefer taking caplets over tablets because they are easier to swallow."
