I have anxiety. And insomnia. So I take very little tiny piece of rivotril at night to help me sleep. Very tiny piece. So please tell me if we can crush rivotril into tiny pieces and take or it should not be crushed. Any side effects.

Dear Sunanda, You can crush rivotril and keep it as powder and just taste it. It is better for you to follow sleep hygiene and improve your quality of sleep instead of tasting rivotril.

You didn't mention about the dose of tab rivotril. If it is of 0.25 mg then this tiny peace is only having psychological effect on you. Such dose is does not have any effects. If tablet is of higher dose then this tiny peace may help you in sleep. Yes you can crush it. All the best
