      You need to take the amount that has been prescribed by your doctor...no more...no less!

        You can break them in half if they are hard to swollow but as Ducka take the amount you are prescribed so if you break the one in half take the two halves if this is the dose prescribed.

          No, the meds are prescribed to be taken as they are, if you halve them they are useless, see your doctor if they don,t agree with you.
