Hello, im from Norway. I was diagnosed with CML earlier this week, and im having problems swallowing the big pill, so ive been dissolving it in water for now, wich works okay, but it takes about 25minutes for the pill to dissolve, and i want to save some time.
Is it possible to cut/split the pill in 4 to make it easier for me to swallow? I want to take it all down with breakfast, but im just curious if i can divide the pill and then swallow the small parts one by one.
I cannot find a split mark on the pill, im taking 400mg Glivec.
It looks like this: http://www.mims.com/resources/drugs/Singapore/pic/Glivec%20film-coated%2...
Any help would be appreciated.
