There are two ways to get started with the Tablet Splitting program:

  2. Ask your pharmacist to help change your prescription to one that can be split through the Navitus Tablet Splitting program.

Tablet splitting is not required by Navitus, but is simply offered to you as a way to help control costs. If you have any questions, or would like to receive a tablet splitter, please contact Navitus Customer Care toll-free at (866) 333-2757
