I don't take it at night.

I'm still not clear on how the stomach and small intestine stuff works, like how much water to drink with the pills? What triggers the stomach to dump into the small intestine? Does it have to be water, or will any liquid do?
P.S. My new found success didn't last. Developed horrible full-body dyskenesia
in the evening. Exhausting. So today I'm trying 1x100/25 CR whole, plus 1/2x 100/25 fast release (had to chew it up, because I went horribly off ), and I'm down to 2 1/2 hour intervals (started optomistically at 3 hours)
A strange thing: the earlier I stop the drug for the day, the better I feel in the morning, the less desperate to take that first pill, and the less frozen up. Go figure.

So comforting to have company in this nightmare!
