Can I cut these in half? They are too strong. Some say no but what would it do. I need half the strength. Would it just not last as long? All the pharmacist said was it would defeat the purpose. But how long would it last if I cut it in half? They are twelve hour tablets. Please help.

About a month ago, my friend gave me one of his to try and it worked very well for me-I felt so good the next day and it was wonderful to experience a full good night's sleep. So I went to my doctor on Feb 27 and he wrote me a prescription which I took to get filled that night. I was told that they needed some sort of authorization from my insurance and doctor and to check back in 72 hours. I called on Friday (the 2nd) and was told that they were waiting for a a fax from my doctor's office so I called them and they had just sent it to the pharmacy and said that I should be able to get it by Monday (the 5th). Well, life got busy and I didn't get a chance to call the pharmacy until today to check on it but I figured that by now I'd be able to get them (plus I have been sleeping horribly and could really use them). I called today and was told that it still was not approved. So I called my doctor's office and was told that the insurance company told them that they had not yet made a decision and to try back in a few days-which the nurse told me she would do. But what the heck?? What sort of big decision is it to decide to let me get sleeping pills or not? I was tempted to just get them w/o insurance but they are $140 Has anyone else had issues with this?

Im just wondering because A friend of mine said she quit because the side effects where bad AFTER ONLY 1 WEEK, and she thinks 3 days after not taking it she feels better. I think its all placebo, right?

I'm a first semester nursing student in pathophysiology. We have a test next week and one of the objectives is...What are the differences in arterial and venous occlusion and what are the signs and symptoms of both. There is nothing in my book glossary on this subject and I can't seem to find general information on the web. Everything is related to a specific artery or organ. Can anyone help me? Thanks jody
