I have many years of experience of cutting pills and, if one in the
correct dose size is available, I would always prefer to use that to
cutting down a larger pill. Even with a lot of practice, getting the
dose correct by cutting is never certain.


Boots sell 100 dispersible 75mg aspirin tablets for £1.69. So, the
savings to be made are tiny.



What do you mean by tiny ?.

Well under NMW for the time spent.



16 300 mg aspirins are 30p in Sainsbury. That is 64 days supply
for 30p.

You're actually understating the savings, because Asda sell 300 mg
aspirins for 28p for 16.

Whereas Morrisons sell 100 75mg dispersible aspirin for 99p. At under
3/- a month extra cost I'm certainly not going to be cutting up tablets.
