The guest speaker just got rattled or something. The only difference of CR is added cornstarch or the like to make it dissolve slower, so you get a lower peak concentration (good) but a longer wait for it to kick in. The slow release and the preservative effect of Tasmar are additive, giving a longer, smoother ride. Breaking the 50/200 CR tablets in half is all right, but you shouldn't chew them up because you will then get the whole 200mg all at once (bad). Cheers, Joe J. R.
