Filling or Cutting tablets (was Fits and seizures)

Sounds neat, but I would be careful about which tablets you recommend this for. There has been some publicity recently about cutting tablets to reduce the dosage. Apparently cutting open tablets with an enteric coating can have fatal results due to the drugs being released too quickly
Reduction methods:
A -If your son has tablets, then use a dedicated metal nail file to scrape
cumulatively. (This means one dose 1 you scrape once, dose 2 twice and so
on)
