Please allow me to answer. This pretty much explains it all:

"Slickdeals.net is a participant in the Amazon Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

pay-per-sale: In this type of program, the merchant pays an affiliate when the affiliate sends a customer who makes a purchase. Some merchants pay the affiliate a fixed rate per sale while others, like Amazon, pay a percentage of the sale.

pay-per-click: In this arrangement, the affiliate is paid based on how many visitors arrive at the merchant's site via the affiliate link, and the affiliate is paid regardless of whether visitors make a purchase.

pay-per-lead: This type of program pays affiliates based on the number of visitors to the merchant's site who sign up as leads or fill out the requested information on the website."

In other words, it doesn't have to be a good deal or even a deal to get posted. Slickdeals is owned by Goldman Sachs and those links, pay-per-click, and affiliate fees add up to an immense amount of money paid out by Amazon and others.

Spend a buck more and get this one: https://a.co/d/dQ2XSsn

It produces much better results, as it actually holds the pill in place.

If any of your pills are oblong, the one in this post will always produce uneven splits.

Thanks. Didn't know these things existed and now can stop using a razor to cut pills.

If you don't need a good pill splitter, I wonder if you can just go into your pharmacy and get one for free. My pharmacy gave me one for free with a prescription medication purchase even though I never even asked for one.

edit: wow i didnt even realize that the V on the pill cutter is facing the wrong direction with orientation vs the hinge. This will more likely have the pill go loose. I change my mind, this is bad.

It's made in US and packaged in Mexico. I guess it could be cheaper if they just package it in US too.

I have a couple pills that crumble when I try to cut them with a razor blade. I find that a nice thick rigid kitchen scissors are the best. I haven't tried a pill cutter.

Good price for these. They're a bit more durable than the Ezy Dose branded ones.

Why did they cut an enteric coated tablet, and why are we splitting non-scored tablets with uneven drug distribution

Razor blade also scarier. Always have good success with big chef knife. Now do I need this?

If your pill is scored many of them can be split on any hard surface. Place the score side up and push down on both sides.

Your HMO pharmacy may give you one for free. Other pharmacies, like supermarkets, may also give you one for free.

Not suitable for children with fingers unless properly supervised.

"deluxe" nothing, these are basic like the crap ones they give you for free. Their spring mechanism is a thick flexible piece of plastic, and they break/get out of working order very easily.
