Hello, Goje! How are you?

Yes, it is not a time released medication, so you can do so, as long as your doctor approves.

We found out that even the lowest dose can be too much for me, so I have to cut them all.

The FDA classifies this medication as a being a potassium sparing diuretic. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, heartburn, stomach pain, increased urination and dehydration.

Is there anything else I can help with?
