I split the pills by opening the capsule, pouring out half the little granules, swallowing them and keeping the rest of the capsule. I pinch the end of it so I know I've taken half of that one. I read that each granule is enteric coated so I can't imagine what the problem would be with splitting them. I figure the capsule itself is just gelatin and dissolves right away. I've been splitting Effexor that way for a long time.
I think the reason they don't want you to split them is because they want to sell more pills.
