Is it ok to break tylenol 500 mg in two pieces to reduce its strength to approximately 250 mg each?

Yes: Acetaminophen comes also in a liquid form that might be easier to dose and swallow.

Tylenol: If the pill is scored down the middle, then it can be split/cut in two. Do not crush or chew extended-release tablets.
