Hi Dana, yes , u can cut them in half. I use 2 take 10 mg of Flexeril and I cut them in half. I take medication now that's not scored and I cut it in half. I use a pill cutter, it's much easier.
Can 10 mg flexeril be broken in half if it does not have a score line
Yes, it can be cut in half, since it isn't a time released tablet.
This is true of most medications, unless your doctor or pharmacist specifically instructs you otherwise. There are some, such as potent potassium supplements, that can cause damage to the stomach and esophagus, if they are cut in half.
