MEALS AND MEDS

Just what does it mean when the directions on your medicine bottle say "take with food"
It means at the END OF YOUR MEAL, says Steven Chen, M.D..

"when there's plenty of food in your stomach"

But, if you're instructed to take medicine on an empty stomach, you should wait at least two hours after a meal, then give yourself another hour before eating again!
