absorption of medication problems NEED HELP
which meds? are they time released or packed in oil?
if you want to test the break down of the "vehicle", you can put capsules in your mouth directly, roll them around til they get soft, and send 'em on down.
I'm not brave enough to test tablets this way, so I rinsed my (clean) mouth in water 4-5 times, like 1 oz? So, I had thoroughly saliva soaked water and put my tablet in there.
Now, for example, if you are taking Rx vit D, the "shell" will break down immediately, BUT it's D2, IN OIL. We only absorb D3, deliver in dry form, so capsule with powder.
I take Welbutritin, but rather than XL or SR, whatever it is, I take 100mg 3 times.
