Why should you never share your medication in two parts?

We've often had us with medication because of its size, or bad taste split it into two parts and then chew it. At times, this is even more so with young children, who break their medicine, dust it, and mix it with water. [...]
We've often had us with medication because of its size, or bad taste split it into two parts and then chew it.
At times, this is even more so with young children, who break their medicine, dust it, and mix it with water. This is totally wrong.
According to pharmacists, you should never use this method for several reasons:
First, there are some drugs that are coated with a layer that is not visible with the naked eye but that serves it not to spread into the stomach immediately, otherwise causing frustration.
In other cases, other layers serve to disseminate the medicine in our body slowly, over time, and not immediately. If you divide them into two parts, then this layer is destroyed and can cause serious side effects or injuries.
And while the method you choose for young children - the oppression of medicine - can be more dangerous, as its components can be joined by environmental bacteria, and you are really at risk to your children.
But you can drink your medicine in half only when your doctor recommends it.
