Whoohoo time to use my pharmacy school learned skills!
If it's just plain old vicodin (probably even the generic - Hydrocodone with Acetaminophin) then you're fine crushing it, cutting it in half or whatever. The only time you can't crush, cut or whathave you is 1) If its a capsule (as stated above) or 2) if it is a forumlation to be extended sustained or delayed release (again, as stated above). Crushing those will mess up the way it's realeased and you'll get a huge load at once or somesuch.
If you want to post exactly what the medication name is on the bottle I can tell you for sure if you can break it up, etc, that or just call the pharmacy.
Also, if you're having trouble getting them down drink some before you go to swallow, to get things 'lubed' up.
