can you split losartan into two and take 50 in morning and 50 in afternoon rather than 100 at night

It is probably OK to split your losartan pill. But use a pill splitter. But first ask yourself what advantages splitting will bring. However if you need the definite answers as to whether it is safe to do so or whether there are any advantages talk to your local pharmacist who is qualified to answer.

Our pharmacy split our tablets, although not much better than I was doing!

best to ask your pharmacy, explaining why you think it might benefit you or what issues you are having, before you do

I am prescribed 2 x 50mg daily ie. 100mg. However, I know that although it is a good medicine, it can have a reaction with my other meds including Indapamide and bisoprolol so I take 75mg at 8.30am and 25mg at 3pm. Prior to this, I was taking 50mg in the morning and 50mg in the evening . I was often up too many times for a wee at night so I found my new regime better. If you ask for the 50 mg capsules you will find them easy to split equally.
