The best way to resolve this issue is to call the company directly and ask to speak with "technical support" (or the equivalent). I've had this experience with another med that wasn't supposed to be divided (according to the doctor and website). The answer, from one of the people who actually developed the delivery form of the med, was that they just discourage division because it's hard to achieve accurate dosing, not because there's anything dangerous about it.
I have no idea whether this applies to Strattera -- there could be additional issues such as the med absorbing moisture from the air etc. I'd just call the company directly and ask. They'll know the answer.
