Pill / tablet cutter

Has anyone got one that they would recommend? I think I could do with one. Might need to split small pills into quarters so I need something that can cope with that.

Thanks.

 

i use this it works fine

ACWOO Small Pill Tablet Cutter, Portable Pill Splitter for Small and Large Pills Cut in Half Quarter, Cutting & Storage 2 in 1 Tablet Pill Dispenser per Elderly, Child, Dog, Cat, Pet, Travel (B) : Amazon.co.uk: Health & Personal Care

 

I got a decent one from Tesco's pharmacy—just checked and they still sell them.

As long as they enclose the pill (so that one half doesn't shoot off somewhere), most of them are probably good enough to do the job. If you visit a pharmacy for meds, they may sell them or be able to recommend one.

 

I use the pill mill and cut tiny and large with it.

thanks. don't think i have any like this that need cutting.

 

I use a scalpel. Something like this which comes with spare blades. The blades have never gone rusty and they last for absolutely ages.

I have bought pill cutters in the past, and I do keep one in stock for occasional use, but I haven't found one with spare blades, and the blade the cutter comes provided with has gone rusty on occasion.Before going rusty some of them I've tried have not been very sharp at all.

 

I have gone for one of the highly rated but relatively cheap ones off Amazon. I'll see how it is. If it starts to blunt or otherwise play up I'll pay more next time.
