However, I only feel safe taking a fraction of the smallest amount most other people would take to start.
Yep, 75mg immediate-release is the smallest tab you can get. I have to quarter the tabs with a utility knife. You have to be careful-you have to use quite a bit of pressure on these generic bupropion tabs! The film coating is rather heavy. Even a pill crusher has a tough time with them. I could probably handle taking an intact WB 100mg SR tab right now-it is just that bupropion messes up my sleep so badly. It tends to provoke early-morning awakenings for me.Mitch
