Can I cut an oxy 20 (grey with 14 on one side, np on the other) in half, so I get just half the dose?

Yes, Nesher Pharmaceuticals lists this as being a regular release tablet, so there shouldn't be a problem, unless your doctor says otherwise.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
