Can I Decrease The Dosage Of Meclizine 25 Mg?

I have vertigo problems when I lay down just on my left side. Dr. gave me meclizine 25 mg. Can I just split this pill in half and take it. It makes my head feel funny.... Instead of taking it three times a day because it makes me sleepy can I take just 1/2 of the pill before going to bed at night. ?
