    Orals with or without food?

    Is it best to take orals with or without food? Does it matter?

    absortion has been shown to be better when taken on an empty stomach. However some find that they have stomach problems when taking medication on empty stomach so should take with a meal. To be honest the difference is minimal and not worth worrying over.

    Doesn't matter either way, tried both ways with no difference in results.

    After meals is the best way to go, decreases stomach issues and has better absorbtion

    It really ***ends on your stomach and intestinal intregity, they cause bleeding in my GI tract on an empty stomach...I just avoid them completely, on the other hand I have had a long history of GI disorders and had my large intestine removed.....

    Doesn't matter much. Any medication that you take on a empty stomach may cause some issues. I don't believe the absorption rate would be that different so if you take it on a empty stomach and get any discomfort then take it with a meal. Pretty solid.
    Good Luck

    I take all my orals as soon as I wake up now. Then I eat breakfest about 45mins later. I used to take them with food but I got stomach acid coming up in my throat and it was painful.

    Decoder thats reflux. Could be a issue of taken it on a empty stomach. Try it with food. If you continue to get it then get yourself some zantac before you dissolve your throat.

    the only difference taking it with food or with out is absorption times.... if you take an oral without food it will hit the bloodstream faster than if it had to be digested with food... but as far as bio-availabilty goes, they will be absorbed just the same but just at a faster or slower rate... some bros prefer to take with food because of stomach problems an oral might cause than if it was taken alone... I personally prefer to take my orals by themselves and I dont swallow right away... I hold it under my tongue and let it absorb that way cuz it hits the bloodstream faster.... happy popping!!!
