Easy to use, doesn't kill the cat like some tick / flea stuff, lasts 3 months.
Haven't thought of buying the bigger pills and cutting them but we do, on the Vet's instructions, cut in half a different pill for one of our mutts.
Doubt if a Vet would prescribe that unless it was safe and efficient.
Another med she takes in 100 mg. doses is available in 200 mg. pills and the local Pharmacy suggested we buy the 200 and cut in half, greatly reduces the overall cost as the 200's are only 25% more than the 100's and we save fees as we buy it every second month instead of every month. Again, doubt if the Pharmacist would suggest something that wouldn't work.
Our Vet in Hope also suggested we get our meds from the Pharmacy, considerably cheaper than the Vet can get it for.
