Guest guest Posted July 4, 2010 Report Share Posted July 4, 2010 Karla, Please be aware of how he's reacting to it. Years ago, a doctor prescribed Paxil for me. I took one pill and really regretted it! It felt like I had a blistering sun burn all over and inside my body. When I told the doctor, he switched me to a low dose of Surazone (sp?) which as it turns out is in the same family. Afraid to take it, my husband who is skilled at cutting pills with a knife for me, gave me a quarter tablet....30 minutes later, it was the same feeling all over again....agony!....I would rather go through child birth several times than ever feel that kind of pain again. During the Surazone reaction, my husband had the idea for me to take Benadryl to calm it until it had cleared my system. That helped....and I never took any meds from the family of medications again. Any way, just please be careful. Peace be with you!--- > > > Good morning all, > Â > Any advice on how to cut a already small pill in four parts? My son is going to start on Paxil, 1/4 tablet once a day, but the paxil tablet is already like a 1/4 inch. Any advice so it doesn't crumble? > --- > Thanks > Â > Karla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
