   Jan,                                                                                                    Only pills which are scored should be broken.   Some pills, like Requip, are not scored and if they are crushed or broken, it will interfere with the absorption process in the GI tract.  SO you could get a large dose too quickly.  Usually the warning is on the side of the bottle of medicine tells you if a med should not be crushed or broken.                                                                                                               On another subject, was that another language that Ray was talking?   I have a very UNsophisticated system called mailstation which is e-mail without the PC.   No hard drive so therefore no viruses!!!!!                                                                                                  Cathy, RN
