These are extended release tablets, so I'm unsure if cutting them in half turns them into immediate release. 150mg seems to be the lowest dose I can find, however, it's still way too much for me. Immediate release would probably have me crawling up the walls with anxiety.

I'm trying bupropion because small amounts of NRIs seem to supress my nausea, but the tricylics give me horrible chest pains.

as far as i understand, breaking up time-released pills will destroy the time-release mechanism, so no.

Thanks, I guess I'll just pick up a mortar and pestle and start at about 25mg.

bupron (generic bupropion sr, the one from alldaychemist, right?) is not time-released, it's sustained release technology. the composition of the tablet is the same throughout the pill and cutting it in half will not make a difference in the release of the medication.

Right, manufactured by Sun Pharma... but from UP rather than ADC.
