Yes. Both the XL and SR variants are what we call Extended Release or Sustained Release. The medicine instead being released at once is slowly released and thus has a longer effect. So you could continue to take the medicine. However, I would suggest that youconsult with your treating doctor once if you're still unsure or having doubts.
