That would probably work. Just make sure it’s not a cheap one.

Yes, I was using a pill cutter. I bought it from a medical store. I used it to balance or reduce the power or mg of the tablets, medicine. Though I decide my dose of medicine by my sleeping hours per night.
Now I am without medicine or antipsychotic. Living well.

My support worker cut her finder on my pill cutter first time using it. It was for 2.5mg Diazepam and they only had 5mg in the pharmacy.

Yes. Might take a little practice to divide the pills with decent precision.
Be aware that not all medications are condoned to be cut by the medical community.
For example zyprexa is ok to be cut, but it’s adviced against on lurasidone. Reason might be that some medication isn’t evenly distributed within the pill, or they have a coating that’s supposed to be intact on ingestion.

I use a pill clipper from my local pharmacy to cut one 300 mg Seroquel pill in halves because I take 450 mg seroquel morning and 450 evening.

Yea I usually just break mine by hand then chose either the bigger or the smaller one depending on how I’m feeling…
They’re 10mg so split it might end up being 6 and 4 but doesn’t make a huge difference to me

That’s not necessarily right

All I said is that SOME medications are not supposed to be split due to the nature of the pill. Also, you need a good pill cutter so it cuts the pill right. If it cuts the pill wrong, you can end up with the wrong dosages.
