Why not? As I described above, GSK's technical services say it's perfectly safe, can back it up with data, and it certainly caused me no additional problems. My pdoc was fine with this too.
Again, the slow release has no relationship to the coating on the pills, but instead is determined by the slow-dissolving internal wax matrix in which the med is imbedded, which dissolves at the same rate whether the pill is divided or not.
