Check with your pharmacist as to whether you can cut your pills in half. If you can, you can go for example from 20 mgs to 10 mgs. I could cut my pills and eventually quartered them. If you need to taper more slowly, see if you can get a prescription for a compounding pharmacy. That way the pills can be made to order. Good luck!

I cut Pepcid pills, if that helps.
