What does 20/12.5 mg mean?
The pill you have is Lisinopril (20 mg) + Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5 mg). To answer your question, the two numbers simply stand for the milligram of each ingredient.
These two drugs are respectively a combination of a diuretic and an ACE inhibitor, to control hypertension.

can this pill be cut in half if too strong
I would check to see if there is a score line on the pill. If so, pills with score lines are generally made to be cut in half.
I believe there is a Lisinopril 10 mg + Hydrochlorothiazide 7.5 mg combination in which case I personally would feel content splitting the pill without a score mark.
I take lisinopril 20/12.5 How much lisinopril 5mg does it take to equal lisinopril 20/12.5.
Re: David (# 2)
If I have a prescription that says only 10mg can I take the prescription that says HCTZ 20-12.5
I have been taking Lisinopril 20/25 for several years. I have been going through the death of a parent and I recently saw my doctor. She refilled my prescription, and I discovered it was only for 20/12.5. I'm out of state now. What can I do?

Update:
Contacted my doctor, and she sent a new corrected prescription that was transferred to my current state.
