Am I getting same benifits..crushing vs taking whole?

Crushing our calcium citrate tabs: Am I receiving the same benifits (absorbing) by crushing or taking whole (or cut in 1/2)? I place my in diluted oj or apple juice and drink it down. The pills are sooo BIG. Even cutting them in 1/3 is still difficult to swallow.
