Yes. Boots didn't have them near me, but a small indepent chemist had two different ones. Having tried both I have to say that a sharp knife did a better job of it. Angela.

Yes, and I found my pill cutter from Boots invaluable. Importantly, never cut enteric coated pills. Only the uncoated white pills should be cut.
