Hello, Kitty! How are you feeling?

That is correct, it is not safe to crush, chew, cut or break a time released medication, because it could cause you to get too much of the medication, at once, which may cause overdose.

As listed by the FDA, the possible overdose symptoms may include severe dizziness, severe drowsiness, stomach pain, vomiting, low blood pressure, low heart rate and shallow breathing.

Did you experience any adverse effects?
