A change of brands....Hmmmmm.

SAMe is marketed with dosage calculated in two ways. One is correct, the other is quite deceptive. The first thing is to clarify the dose.

Brand A might say each tablet contains 200 mg SAMe (as the tosylate), whereas Brand B might say each tablet contains 200 mg SAMe tosylate. The latter is only about 80 mg of SAMe, as it includes the weight of the toluene-sulfonic acid.

If you have confidence that these new pills contain 200 mg SAMe, and that is likely to be too much, then breaking the pill somehow is really the only option. What looks like half is probably half (the dose).
