Pfizer: to break the Lipitor pills in half as doctors say or not break them, as Pfizer commands on its website?

Finally, after stonewalling this blog for a month, Pfizer PR person tells me:

Dear Sir, May 18, 2010

I'm not a doctor so I can't give you any advice. In fact, it
would be unethical for me in PR dept to do so. You'll need to talk to your
doctor. If the doctor has any questions, they as doctors have their usual contacts inside channels
with Pfizer's medical department. PR dept cannot discuss this. I'm sorry if I sound un-cooperative but we
follow very strict PR and ethical procedures at Pfizer. As you know, we are a money making for profit business. You catch my drift, right?

Sincerely,

Pfizer PR dept
