Unfortunately, no. The SR stands for sustained release, which means this is a time released product, so cutting it in half could result in your getting too much of the medication at once.

Verapamil is a calcium channel blocker that is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. This means that getting too much of it could result in severely lowered blood pressure, which can be dangerous.
