If I have a prescription for 50 milligrams once a day, but the pharmacy only offers 100 milligram tablets, can I buy the 100 milligram tablets and split them?
While we will generally not interfere with a doctor’s recommendation for splitting tablets as part of legitimate therapy for some patients, we do not encourage persons to do this on their own and will not fill a prescription that would require spitting unless it specifically indicates this. We regret that we are unable to provide all strengths of drugs through Canada, but we encourage you to consider ordering through a domestic mail order firm.
