Hello, Crystal! How are you?
No, that is definitely not safe to do! That could defeat the time release and cause you to get too much of the medication at once, which may result in a dangerous overdose. They must be taken whole/intact.
Has your doctor changed you to the 200mg or is that a leftover old prescription?
It is already with you all day, so to speak. But what in particular worries you about it?
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache and weight changes.
