I have used this pill cutter to cut small pills in half. It worked just fine.

This pill is 3/8ths of an inch wide. When I don't want a full mg, I cut the pill in half. Actually, for me, a half of this pill is usually effective. I think it could be cut in quarters, too.

Phil, I am no mathematician, but I will tell you what I think. The weight you see on your pill is the amount of active ingredient, not counting the inert material. A pill that says 200 milligrams may just have 200 mgs of the important stuff and the rest is dust:). I still don't get the conversion because I think 200mg should be equal to 2 grams, not 1/3 of a gram. I am confused, but my son who is a mathematician will be visiting me during the holidays, and I will ask him and respond to you again. Sorry I can't be much help. Merle

This product is not meant for small dogs. I would purchase the pill for small dogs or consult your vet to see if you may be able to cut them in half. My vet recommended that I give this pill once every 3 weeks instead of every month because of the life cycle of tape worms. The long and short is: Call your vet. It only takes a couple minutes and that'll be the best advice.

I've only had it a month but it seems to not be dull at all.. but for a couple of dollars, get a couple if worried.. I use it about 1c a week to split the next week's pills.. good luck!

Shouldn't if you want the full affect of it. It needs to be from the medicine dropper as that's how it works the best. It would be useless in formula since that would dilute it.

I suggest taking the pill whole for best results, do not cut in half, It has been great and I have noticed results.

the pills are 3/8 of an inch wide. Don't know why you would want to cut them into 4's. the dose is 1 tablet 1 - 2 times a day. I take one a day. Cutting into 4's would not be easy, they are round, flat pills.

I've only had it for about a month and use it on a weekly basis to split pills for the following week. So far it is still sharp, but can't say how it will be in the long run. Not very expensive, so you might want to buy an additional one for back up.

My husband just told me he has lost 10 lbs. over the past month and a half. He take this pill about 1/2 hour before his meals and said he just is not hungry like he used to be. lunch would be soup and a full sub. Now it is just soup and he is full. He said he feels no other effects from the pill. So if you are looking to cut back on what you eat, give it a try.

Yes, it has worked very well with different sized pills. I just split a centrum multi vitamin so I could answer your question and it worked well. You just have to position the pills correctly.

Yes it is about hAlf inch you could cut it with a pill cutter. It works very well I recommend it.

Yes. I have used this pill splitter on both scored, and not scored pills and have good results. At times, both types of pills may not cut cleanly leaving very small chunks in the splitter.

Not small. It is an oblong pill which, if broken in half, is still not small.

The tablets are 3/4 inch long (3 cms) and relatively thick. They are not supple. Daily dosage is two tablets which can be taken together. Manufacturer's instructions for use do not prohibit cutting in half or pulverizing, so that could serve as a solution to your problem.

Probably shouldn't as this could release the ingredients all at once. However, should not cause any harm since this is only a 3mg dose when whole.
