> > Vince, you said you cut a 10mg Parnate in half? You might want to check with your friend (nurse) or the pharmacist, some medications that can be dangerous. I'm sure you probably already know, but just in case! Want you to feel well!

> I do it only monday...35mg...I take the whole 40mg yesterday and I only had hypertension at the end of the afternoon and at night...with a little bit of palpitations and heart racing feeling inside my chest and a strange sensation in my head, in the middle of the head not from the neck... Yesterday, my highest blood pressure was 156/95 - 60 ... Yeah that's HIGH, but from all the peoples I ask and the informations I receive, that's not dangerous to the point I need to stop the Parnate and go to the Emergency...Something like 190-200 and more will be dangerous to the point I go to the emergency or pop-up another "Nefepidine" pill (but I don'T want to...just if my doctor will advise me to take it like you do, on a regular basis for a couple of days, until my blood pressure will be stable)...

> The strange sentation inside my head is probably come from the effect on the DO, NE or SE, since I experience it before on other AD drugs... The fact that I have general anxiety make me also an easy candidate to high myself (just with my think) the blood pressure, since I have a fixation on it and on all the physicals symptoms I feel inside me...that's not helping...We call this "Hypervigilance" ...very common for a person who have general anxiety and panic disorder ... "Hypervigilance is an enhanced state of sensory sensitivity accompanied by an exaggerated intensity of behaviors whose purpose is to detect threats. Hypervigilance is also accompanied by a state of increased anxiety which can cause exhaustion. Other symptoms include: abnormally increased arousal, a high responsiveness to stimuli and a constant scanning of the environment for threats. Hypervigilance is a symptom of posttraumatic stress disorder, general anxiety and panic disorder..."

Actualy i believe you might be mistaken,of course this is my opinion.

Capsules,powdered tablets usualy can be opened emptied to a degree or split in powdered versions.


Whole tablest however,coated ones usualy have a delivery system about them as to how long they dissolver and well they do.

I always found breaking parnate tablets apart seemed to ruin the entire pill,but on the brighter side i dont believe there is any danger and hey if it works is what counts,but like you i love tabs like gabaentin who im a big fan of using partial amouints from the powdered pill by breaking,however encetric or headache pills or the like i usualy just leave be.cheers!
