Some tablets are scored to allow for easier splitting, enabling patients to take a lower dose if needed or to facilitate swallowing. Scoring creates a predetermined break line, ensuring that the tablet can be halved or quartered with relative accuracy. This feature is particularly useful for medications that require dosage adjustments or for individuals who may have difficulty swallowing whole tablets. Additionally, scored tablets can help improve medication adherence by providing more flexible dosing options.
