Where is the data showing that doses can not be split? Also where is the data showing that 8 mcg is the optimum dosage? The number was not picked out of the air. They had to do a study of varying dosages before selecting 8 mcg. Was that chosen to encompass 200 lb men?

@njhornung the doses absolutely cannot be split. I have asked doctors. It works only with a large bolus that raises (synthetic) parathyroid hormone. From the insert: "Do not use 2 doses in one day."

Many of us seem to be using Tymlos with dosing less than 80mcg though we need to let our doctors know. You could ask Radius how they came up with 80mcg. I believe that regardless of body size, the higher dose the better but I could be wrong so check with doctor, pharmacist or Radius on that.
