Hello, why do I absorb medications only when I eat something in front of them? Lack of digestion does not absorb them? No medicine for an empty stomach is absorbed by me, thank you in advance and best regards

The absorption of drugs depends, for example, on the pH in individual sections of the gastrointestinal tract. There are medications that should be used only on an empty stomach or only with food. Some preparations in combination with food do not have an optimal therapeutic effect.
On what basis do you think that medications taken on an empty stomach are not absorbed? Digestive or absorption disorders and ineffectiveness of the preparations used should be consulted with a doctor. Based on your medical history, your doctor may order more detailed diagnostic tests (such as a biopsy of the gastrointestinal tract), which may indicate the cause of your malabsorption disorders. The pharmacist does not have the diagnostic capabilities to determine the cause of the ineffectiveness of the drugs used in your treatment.
If you do not have the possibility of a stationary consultation, I encourage you to use the teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:
