A Precision Pill Cutter Saves Money
An accurate pill cutter or pill splitter has become a necessity for many people who use high-priced prescription drugs to maintain health and want to reduce their monthly expenditure on medicine. Cutting or splitting pills is particularly appropriate for Lipitor and Viagra due to their flat pricing structure.
Lipitor is the largest selling prescription drug in the World at around $14 billion in annual sales. Many Lipitor users and many physicians are not aware that the cost to the individual is around $1,300 per year regardless of whether they need the 80 mg tablet, the 40 mg tablet, the 20 mg tablet or the 10 mg tablet. (The 10 mg tablet is slightly cheaper.) The Swiss Pill Cutter for Lipitor is machined from tool quality steel alloy and accurately and consistently cuts the 80mg, 40mg and 20mg tablet in half and the 80mg tablet into quarters to yield four 20mg tablets.

Swiss Pill Cutter for Lipitor
Viagra has a similar price structure. Viagra costs about $10 per tablet regardless of whether it is 25 mg, 50 mg or 100 mg. Very few users require the 100 mg dosage, so it pays for the vast majority of users to cut the tablet in half or in quarters using an accurate pill cutter. The savings are between $5 and $7.50 per tablet. If you use Viagra once a week, you can save $260 per year for the 50 mg dosage, or $390 per year for the 25 mg dosage.
Viagra is particularly interesting for several reasons:
- It is difficult to find discounted Viagra. Even the Canadian pharmacies which offer big discounts on other prescription drugs do not seem to discount Viagra.
- It has been very popular and has proven safe and effective for six years.
- Viagra is very difficult to cut accurately with most pill cutters or razor blades due to the hard coating and irregular shape.
- It is not covered by most health insurance programs, so users usually pay full price.
