Can the pill be cut in half so you're only getting 5000 mg?

This tablet can easily be cut in half. So easy to swallow. It has been an answer to my prayer. My hair had become and in a short time has gotten thicker. I take this everyday and do not want to be without it. If you have my problem, be sure to take the whole tablet. This is what my hairdresser said you should take.

For the question posted by Sylvia Z. .. first it is micrograms/mcg, not milligrams/mg; very big difference. Web MD and the Mayo Clinic recommend 30mcg and 30mcg-100mcg daily, respectively. 300mcg = 100% of the daily value intake for Biotin. Even if you quarter these pills, you will still be getting 2,500mcg daily which is well beyond the recommended dose. I have used a half pill off and on with no ill side effects. Also, quartering them will make them last longer.

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

Each individual tablet is 450mg. Any larger mg. count would produce a pill too big for most folks to swallow whole I'm thinking. What did impress me is this supplier does put more tabs per bottle than any other similar product I've purchased. Most supplements only fill their bottle half full; this supplier fills it to close to 7/8's.

I contacted Thorne about this exact thing. they reduced the capsule size to reduce the bottle size. it is still 5mg.

Yes. I have been able to cut a very small pill in half and then cut the halves into fourths, which were just a tad over 1/16th inch square. (The pill was for my kitty.) However, if the pill is somewhat crumbly, it might shatter at such a small size.

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

Many pills actually will split with just a bit of pressure - they don't need a slitter, meaning that the blade on the pill splitter will stay sharper - for me, close to two years

They are what I would consider a large pill. They're about the size of the piece of metal that holds the eraser on a pencil; so about an inch long and about a quarter inch in diameter. But I don't see why you couldn't cut it in half, or something, as long as you end up taking it all.

Not really... it is a tablet so could be split with a pill splitter but you wouldn't want to as you would lose the coating which protects your stomach - Sam-e can cause stomach discomfort as a side effect. They do sell a 200 mg pill as well.

They are larger than a multi-vitamin tablet. You might be able to cut them in half to take them.

It can't cut small pills into four pieces; I don't know if it can handle large ones. I use it once a week to cut several pills in half and have had it for several months, and now it's nearly worn out and I need to get a new one. But it did work very well for those several months - better than most I've bought, so I'll likely buy this one again.

Yes, you can cut one pill at a time or you can cut quite a few like 6-20 pills all at once, depending on the size of the pill. Works very well.

I suspose they can be cut in half. They come in plastic packaging. Once cut you would have loose powder.

Yes, these tablets can be broken in half. However, they may have sharp corners that could be difficult to swallow.

I googled "atenolol 25 mg" and based on the images I found I believe this pill splitter will cut it in half. I use it for pills about the same size and I have to quarter them. This pill splitter gets the job done!

not very large...size of a typical aspirin...I don't see the need to cut them unless you want to decrease the doseage in which case it may be simpler to order a smaller dose.
