What is a Pill Cutter?
Pill cutters are small tools that have sharp blades for cutting medications. The user places a tablet inside the cutter wedge, then he or she closes the cutter to make the interior blade come down on the pill to split it into two pieces. Typically made with stainless steel blades, pill cutters often feature a storage compartment for extra pills.

Why Do You Need a Pill Cutter?
A doctor might write a prescription that instructs you to take half a pill, or even a quarter of a pill. This means you will need to cut the medication to get to the correct dosage. Never use scissors or a knife to cut tablets—this could lead to injuries or uneven crumbling of medication. A pill cutter is exactly what you need to get to the right pill size. Pill cutters allow for a neat and precise slice.

What is a Pill Crusher?
Pill crushers crush medications into a powder form. Often made of plastic, pill crushers are usually durable, so they can withstand falls, tolerate rough use, and last a long time. Certain designs feature a clear body that allows users to monitor the pill during crushing, while others feature a storage compartment to keep extra pills or leftover doses clean and protected from outside environments.

Why Do You Need a Pill Crusher?
Pill crushers are necessary to help children and other individuals who find it difficult to swallow whole tablets. Hand-operated pill crushers turn tablets into fine powders that can be mixed into food or beverages for consumption.

Can I Cut or Crush All Pills?
No. Always consult with your doctor or pharmacist before cutting or crushing medication. Some pills are not meant to be cut or crushed, like coated tablets and time-release capsules. Examples exclude, but are not limited to: opioid tablets, birth control pills, anti-seizure medications, heartburn medication, and more.
