To me, the film are much easier to cut my doses. I cut my films up and put each days worth in a pill holder (it has a box for each day and I got it at heb). for me it takes the guesswork and the temptation out of my dosing routine. I can't tell u how many times b4 I got my pill box that I took extra 'just this once' almost every day. I'm bound and determined to do this!
