A member asked:
Zyrtec-d (10 mg) makes it hard for me to sleep. is it okay to cut one in half?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nope.: It's not scored because it is a sustained-release product. "Do not crush, chew or break". Just take cetirizine alone and supplement with a low-dose decongestant if needed during the day (pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine) if you feel stuffed up.
