I have a problem. In my country, prednisolone comes in 5 mg pills only and they don't have a splitting line to make things easier. We will have to go down to 2,5 mg in 2 weeks and I tried to cut the pill in half but the parts come out uneven each time! I went and bought a pill cutter, but even with it the pieces are slightly uneven and some of it crumbles.
I'm assuming that the dosages has to be very exact with a medication like that, so crushing it and trying to make two piles is also not the best method. I've also tried with a razor and the pill just crumbles. I have shaky hands in general which doesn't help. Any ideas how to split the pill evenly?? I'm starting to panic. There are no smaller dosage pills here, I've asked at the pharmacy. In Sweden we had 2,5 mg pills that were easily splittable. What am I going to do? Heeelp
