My, soon to be, former doctor told me that over-the-counter Slo-Niacin damages the liver while Niaspan does not but he cited no research. I have read, again without citing research, that any kind of extended release tablet is harmful. Any comments? ## Well Niaspam is just a name brand for a pill that is just Niacin, so that really doesn't make sense.

5 REPLIES Filed under Slo-NiacinCan this pill be cut in half in order to make it easier to swallow? ## That really depends on whether or not this pill is a solid tablet or a capsule filled with liquid or powder.

I hope this helps! ## My husband can not swallow medication and it is crushed and soaked in water and then put through his stomach tube. Some medications will not separate...
4 REPLIES Filed under CiprofloxacinDo I take Cipro Before or After eating and is there any food I shouldn't eat when I do take it? ## The tablet and suspension are usually taken twice a day, in the morning and evening, with or without food. The extended-release tablets are usually taken once a day. Cipro XR brand extended-release tablets may also be taken with or without food. Take ciprofloxacin at around the same time(s) every day. The length of your treatment depends on the type of infection you have. Your doctor will tell you how long to take ciprofloxacin.
