Works for some pills, but could be improved., December 25, 2008

This review is from: Apex Ultra Pill Splitter (Health and Beauty)

This product works best if you’re cutting a hard, medium- or large-sized, round pill in half. It keeps the pill in place with a rubber grip while you’re cutting it, and then neatly contains the two halves in a compartment.

However, if you’re cutting a pill into quarters, things become more difficult. It is hard to position a pill half in the splitter so that evenly split quarters are obtained. The blade is covered by plastic, which confers a blunting effect that tends to crush or chip some pills, especially small or soft ones.

Despite the crushing effect of the blade’s plastic cover, this product is very safe. You do not need to worry about cutting your fingers on the blade while positioning a pill.

Another difficulty when using this product is cutting large, oblong pills. It is difficult to position the pill so that the blade splits the pill evenly, regardless of whether you are attempting to split down the long axis or the short axis. Some oblong pills do not even fit in the splitter so that they can be split down the short axis.

Finally, while this product is quite useful for cutting certain kinds of pills, it is a bit on the expensive side, especially considering its limitations.

great pill cutter, December 1, 2007

I bought this because my old cutter’s blade got loose. This is one fine pill cutter. The pills go into this slip-resistant place, then after the blade cuts them, the cut halves drop into a well. That means you don’t have to empty the thing after every cut. Just 5 minutes before writing this I cut a bottle of meds. I’d buy another one of these in a second.

Does a good job, May 12, 2007

I got this for my Mom who has to split one of her medications in half. Every month when she gets her prescription she sits down and splits the entire 30 day supply in half. It only take a couple of minutes and she’s done. She’s very happy with this product. Before she used a sharp knife and was constantly retrieving pill halves off the floor. This product does a good job of containing the halves and makes splitting the pills in half much more accurate. This is a great product for the elderly and those with sight impairment.
