We investigate the problem of divergences and renormalizations in the Hamiltonian formalism of quasi-classical field theory. This approach is known to involve divergences in the leading term of the expansion. Proposals have been made to eliminate the divergences by using nonequivalent representations of the canonical commutation relations at different moments of time. In this paper, we consider the Schrödinger equation with ultraviolet and infrared cutoffs. In order to remove the cutoffs, conditions are imposed on the initial state of the regularized theory in addition to the conditions imposed on the counterterms in the Hamiltonian. In the leading order of the quasi-classical expansion, we give the explicit form of these conditions, which is invariant under the evolution. This allows us to show that this approximation does not require the introduction of nonunitary evolution transformations
