Noa,

Just letting you know - the discussion is about Wellbutrin, not Effexor. That's why the differences in milligrams...

keeping you on track with a smile and a nudge,

I assume that size affects how long until the active ingredient is released into the blood. I also surmise that to effectively split a time release capsule, one would have to sort all the little multi-sized beads and then divide them evenly, unless one wants to have very uneven up and down experiences with the meds. This is just my conjecture, of course. But if true, I would think it is an awfully tedious way to split your dose.
