How long do vitamins/medications stay in our stomachs to digest?

I take one time released medication and a lot of vitamins daily. I am wondering if anyone has information on how long it takes for them to metabolize into our systems. Is it important to not drink a lot of water immediately after taking them? Any insites are appreciated.
