I used a tablet splitter I got at the CVS. However I did find that using a women's probiotic that most of my problems disappeared. It's still quite dry, however the bonus of all of this was I used to dribble urine like when I would pick up something heavy or laugh too hard etc. It's all gone using the probiotic. I got cheap and quit taking it and within a week all the old problems came back. So I really do believe the probiotic helped me more than vagifem ever did. And I don't have to worry about using estrogen, I don't want to tempt fate with my breast cancer.
