Pill splitting
text:
Pill-splitting refers to the practice of splitting a tablet or pill to provide a lower dose of the active ingredient, or to obtain multiple smaller doses, either to reduce cost or because the pills available provide a larger dose than required. Many pills that are suitable for splitting come pre-scored so that they may easily be halved. The practice is also referred to as tablet scoring. It is unsafe to split some prescription medications.
