Pharmacy
Find out how to refill prescriptions, where to pick up prescriptions and how to safely dispose of medicine.
Over the next year, Madison VA Hospital and Clinic patients who currently cut tablets in half will have their prescription changed to whole tablets, if available. For example, if you get 10mg tablets that you cut in half, you will now get 5mg tablets instead. Your daily dose will not change.
- If you do not have any prescriptions for half-tablets, you can disregard this letter.
- The next time your Madison doctor writes you a new prescription for half-tablets, it will be changed to whole tablets.
- Please read your prescription label carefully to make sure you take the right medicine and dose.
- If you want to switch to whole tablets sooner, contact the Madison VA pharmacy.
