I am Diabetic type 2 and would like to know if I can cut the Glizide in a half to help reduce my symptoms? I read the prescription and it stated no but the pharmacist still suggested that I cut it in 1/2. Please advise. Thanks.

Hello, Stephanie! How are you?

You should take the dosage prescribed by your doctor.

What symptoms are you experiencing?

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, flatulence, stomach pain, diarrhea, and hypoglycemia. However, they are usually transient and will go away, once your body gets used to the medication.
