Can I Cut Isosorb Mono Er 30mg Tab Wes In Half?

Updated

For lack of funds I was without my isosorb mono er 30mg tab WES for five days. I started taken it again and after two days of horrible headaches realized must be my meds. My question is can I cut them in half so my system can more slowly get used to the Isosorb again?

Hello,

Based on my research, Splitting tablets (if split unevenly) may effect the designed release profile significantly enough to where it may cause health problems. The way certain tablets (especially coated and controlled release tablets) are broken down and absorbed in the body can change when they are split. This can potentially decrease positive effects and increase negative effects associated with the medication.

Tablets that are safe to split normally have a score line or breakage line. Are there any breakage lines on the Isosorbide Mononitrate tablets you have?
