Could be done: If the tablets are scored they may be cut in half, but adjusting the dose should be done under the supervision of a qualified physician or psychiatrist who knows your case.

Weaning off...: Zoloft (sertraline) is a scored tablet so you can easily cut it in half to make 25 mg. However if you are weaning off this medication should be under your prescriber's advise. Never make a decision of coming off a medication without consulting with your doctor.
