splitting capsules

compo · 13-11-2004, 04:40 PM

I'm about to use 4-diol capsules in a stack with nor-diol. Is it ok to split the capsules to allow me to take the correct dosages?

You cant' split capsules. The powder will pour out... and you won't kow what part of the powder is the active ingredient and which part is the filler(baking soda or whatever)
If they are tabs, it's ok... but capsules can't be split

in that case, I have a supply of 250mg 4AD and 150mg of nor-diol tablets. I can no longer follow the recommended stack i was going to follow,which was:
Week 1-2 take 750 mg of 4-diol and 250 mg of Nor-diol
Week 3-5 take 500 mg of 4-diol and 500 mg of Nor-diol
Week 6-7 take 250 mg of 4-diol and 750 mg of Nor-diol
divided between 2 doses. Can you suggest how I should stack the two?
Thanks

You need to keep your doses the same all the way through the cycle... there's no need to taper up or taper down. I really don't know how in the world you came up with that cycle, but you definitely don't need to follow it. Do somethin more like this.
Weeks 1-6: 750mg 4ad, 600mg 19-nor
Weeks 7-8: 300mg 6-oxo

Best of luck.

... or could I take the 4AD n three doses and the Nor-diol in two as they are 150mg caps?

well, i would probably do them in 3 equal doses, one in the morning, one at lunch and one before bed just to keep the levels in the blood somewhat similar throughout your day. The nor, I would just do in 2 doses, morning and midday
