Divide Ritalin LI into 4

Hello, I have a question. I take ritalin 10mg LI per day (LP suited me less because of less flexibility: difficulty falling asleep if I took it too late in the day)

My work often ends in the early afternoon; I don't need it during my work because it's a simple job that doesn't require a lot of concentration.

On the other hand, at the moment I have a lot of things to do after work which require concentration and motivation.

When I take my 10 mg of Ritalin LI all at once, sometimes it goes well but I sometimes have side effects of "physical stress", muscle tension (I don't know how to explain that but it's not very pleasant. These distressing effects generally last a good part of the drug's duration of action.

When I divide the tablet in half (which I take 5 mg and 5 mg), it happens to me less often and less strongly but it still happens to me sometimes. The 5 mg still works in terms of my productivity.

My question is have some people divided their dose by 4 like:

2 p.m. 1/4 of the dose (for me 2.5 mg) 3 p.m. 1/4 of the dose 4 p.m. 1/4 of the dose 5 p.m. 1/4 of the dose

Or if I go home at 4 p.m. for example instead of 2 p.m.

4 p.m. 1/4 of the dose (for me 2.5 mg) 4:30 p.m. 1/4 of the dose 5 p.m. 1/4 of the dose 5:30 p.m. 1/4 of the dose

(I stop at the end of the afternoon because in the evening I no longer need to concentrate, I do things that don't require concentration or I relax)

Bulk : - does redosing lower doses every half hour or hour prolong the effects (concentration and motivation?) - does it represent a danger? (no in my opinion but I prefer to ask)

I have already read testimonials from people who redose every several hours, but my case is special: I never found an answer (maybe I didn't look hard enough, I don't know)

I say because it is particular in my opinion because I need it, we will say that approximately 4 or 5 hours during the day (during the week)

The weekend is different, either I take breaks or I spread out more

Don't hesitate to correct me if my questions are unclear and thank you for your answers for those who have tried this or who have heard of people trying this

The post was long so a reminder of my main questions for fear of having drowned the fish:

  • does redosing lower doses every half hour or hour prolong the effects (concentration and motivation?)

  • does it represent a danger? (no in my opinion but I prefer to ask)

THANKS :)
