The R-lipoic at 200mg made me very very hyper and anxious. Just like it did when I started. When I started, I used 50mg, in the past for a while before using the 100mg daily. I am now back to 100mg daily, and don't get that unpleasant effect.

You can divide the doses if you want. The whole purpose of the stabilized R form is to improve absorption. At the Linus Pauling site, they have a published comment that taking with food reduces absorption 30%.
