Can I use liquid 1200 mg lecithin tablets in my cannabutter?

I made 7 sticks of cannabutter yesterday and I need guar gum or soy lecithin to blend it into a nicer butter/emulsify it. I'm having a hell of a time finding either in powder form in Canada. Tomorrow I'm going to check the health food store. If I can't find them in powder form, can I use the 1200mg soy lecithin tablets in the mixture?

It just seems like a lot. As far as I can tell it isn't concentrated stuff, most of the mass is probably the glycerine. I'm supposed to use one tablespoon of soy lecithan or guar gum per pound (stick) of butter. A tablespoon of dry ingredients is 14.3 - 15 g. So would I just crack open 12 tablets per stick of butter?

Has anyone actually used these in their butter? Thanks.

Sorry, my understanding from your post is that you were having a hell of a time.
Haha yeah, i checked all the stores except for the health food store because they were closed. I found guar gum for super cheap this morning.
