Dr. Sam, Can I cut a GlucophageXR pill in half?

My daughter recently started taking glucophage for PCOS and IR complaints. Is it ok to cut the 500mgXR pill in half? The doctor wrote the prescription so she should start with 250mgXR daily, and that it was ok to cut the pill in half. The pharmacist says no, she should not cut it in half. What is your opinion?

Many Thanks!
