Gatormom--Ideally, your goal should be to take the lowest dose possible to achieve the desired effects. You stated that you have improved your diet considerably, and that your numbers are excellent. That being the case, it makes perfect sense to determine if you can maintain these numbers with a lower dose. At least this way you will know where you stand. I would think that it would be better to split the pill in half and take it every day, rather than one 20mg pill every other day. But nevertheless, I would check with the doctor first, and allow him to advise you on how best to go about reducing the dose.
