The worst thing that should happen would be increased side effects by defeating the enteric coating and slow release mechanism. I take 250mg ER at bedtime and 125mg Sprinkle. Midday, I open the Sprinkle capsule and put half on pudding and wash it down, then put the capsule back together and take that with my 250ER at bedtime. If I accidentally crush some of the pellets I get some nausea from it that I don't like. If you aren't getting any nausea or other gastrointestinal effects it probably isn't really hurting you.
