Time to take medication-why does it say 30 min before or after meals?


I'm taking herbal medication for weight loss and other things, they always say in the bottle to drink 30 minutes before or 30 minutes after a meal. Would it have the same effect whether it's before or after?

And what if I just take it while I'm eating, will that be okay?

Does acupuncture work for chronic muscle tightness around the shoulders and traps?



Answers:
it would be better if you take it before the meal. i have tried that before and usually if you take it before the meal, you will have the feeling that your stomach is already full, that would let you eat less.

is anyone here having eating disorder or proana?

It's because you should take it on an empty stomach.

The effect would be the same. The medication is probably better absorbed if it isn't taken on a full stomach, so 30 minutes before or after will work.
