Medication is often a non-negotiable part of life. Whether you have a long-term condition, are recovering from a surgery, or have a simple cold, everyone takes pills at some point in their life. Not all pills are small and easy to swallow, however, especially for individuals who struggle to repress their gag reflex when taking medication. Sometimes, physicians recommend only taking partial doses to ween slowly off medication or build up slowly to medication, and these partial doses are not always available in a complete pill.
This pill splitter is a simple, compact aid that cuts pills down in size, often making them easier to swallow. The user places their pill in the funnel-like trough and then closes the pill splitter, forcing a blade in the top half down through the pill. For oblong or oval-shaped pills, there is a convenient middle line indication in the trough so users know where the pill will split so they can align in properly. The splitter is outfitted with two recessed pits for remaining pill halves to be stored until the next dosage time.
