Not always. Let me give a simple example. You have a dropper full of
medicine and a succession of sugar cubes going by on a conveyor. You have
to drip one drop on each as they pass. Every single one of those cubes
now provides one whole dose of medicine. If you take one of them you will
get one whole dose. OTOH, if you break it in two and take one half, you
might get the half with the whole dose, or the half with zero dose. What
you will *not* get, is half a dose.

If its a homeopathic remedy you will get the whole dose even if you
throw the cube in the bin.
