Ribavirin Tabs vs Caps

I noticed that brand Riba comes in caps and generic mostly in tabs.
So far I am getting generic tabs but I am now asking for caps because
I think they are easier on the stomach (have gastritis).
Has anybody taken both and noticed any difference ?
Caps usually dissolve easier .
