Splitting pills

[Lynneypin]

I take 1.5 grains NDT a day in 3 doses. I presume it’s ok to split 1 grain pills as it works out so much cheaper than 1/2 grain ones. No issues that I should be aware of? Thanks.

Yes, I have always split tablets rather than buying the exact dose, it's cheaper as you say and with some brands which only come in 1 grains it's the only way to do it. Just use a proper pill splitter and they'll be even. If you need to store a cut tablet it's best to keep it in the bottle or somewhere air-tight, although I have often kept them in the pill splitter.

Thanks for the reassurance.
