derekliz Posted August 20, 2013 Report Share Posted August 20, 2013 I have been on generic Ivabradine since May 2012 and have been cutting my evening pill in half for a 2.5 mg dose. The pill is NOT scored and I cannot locate anywhere whether it is ok to cut the pill and receive an accurate dose of the meds. Initially when I started the meds, I contacted the international pharmacy that I buy the meds from and they said it was ok to cut. I have read that Ivabradine is sustained release so I am assuming and unscored pill should not be cut.Anyone???Thanks Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegron Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 If it is sustained release then it really depends on what kind of SR it is. Some can be cut and some cannot. But if it is SR and is not scored then most likely it is not okay to cut it.I am not a health professional and this is purely educational.
