Am breaking my tablet in two it has a lineI’m with you.For what it’s worth this is what I would do.I’d not switch at all. Moving to a different format isn’t good when you are not stable anyway. Which I know you are not doing yet. Being on liquid is perfect for tapering at lower doses, when you get there. What I would do, is make your dose daily and weigh the powder/tablet needed with scales. Consistency and fresh is best!I’ll help with the maths if you need. 😀 I’m not a medical professional and cannot offer medical advice. I only offer my thoughts as support.

Let me know if you want help how to achieve this and still maximise doses out of one pill if that’s what you want to do. X I’m not a medical professional and cannot offer medical advice.
