Quartering the tabs into chunks doesn't seem to make much of a difference. Perhaps Celexa has a long enough half-life that any uneven dosings are obscured. If the tablets do not have active medication+buffer/filler distributed evenly throughout a tablet (except on the outer shell), wouldn't that call into question whether or not each pill contains the correct total amount of medication (if it wasn't uniformly distributed)?
