Tomorrow I am picking up 5 Concerta pills, they are amphetamines used for ADHD. They have a time release on them to give out a little of the pill all day... now my question is this:
Do I cut the time release?
I was thinking if one pill lets out a little bit all day -- wouldnt 5 pills let out a little of 5 all day... and last ALL DAY! (The kid who is perscribed taked 1 a day)
ORRR
I could cut them all in half and take them at once, and the high would most likely fade quicker.
So I'm asking your advice...
to cut or not to cut?
 
time released drugs are actually little balls of wax (or something? is it wax? oh well) well they are coated in this substance, they look like little balls of different sizes, your stomach breaks them all down at the same speed but the balls with a thicker coat take longer to be absorbed into the blood, so you need to crush and grind all the little balls into a fine powder, so they are exposed, so when you snort or swallow it all gets absorbed at the same time....
in theory the 5 at a time should work the way you said, but im not entirely sure on that
Peace!

Correction, Concerta sucks. Stick with addies or rit...jmo (also - -you break the time release 'effect' once you chop up the pill i believe)
