I think I saw that one at CVS. I ended up getting one (for my

Dad, for his simvastatin - ee-eeekk!!) that has a neat little plastic

shield that covers the blade when you open it up (anything to make it

safer, I guess..), and a rubberized bed that the pill sits on to hold

it in place. World quite a but better than mine, which just has a

plastic thing, and never really cuts cleanly - I've actually found

that cutting *across* the score line instead of with it works better

sometimes!
