Can I drink milk after taking medicine? Can you drink milk after taking the medicine

You can't drink it, because the milk is thick, and if you drink it, it will wrap the medicine and the medicine will be invalid!

You can't drink milk when taking medicine because dairy products contain more protein and calcium ions. Calcium ions can form complexes or chelates with tetracycline group and isoniazid, which are not easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract and weaken the antibacterial effect; Calcium ions, phosphates and sulfate preparations form calcium phosphate and calcium sulfate precipitates with low solubility, and the efficacy is reduced. When taking the following medicines, the interval between taking milk and milk should not be too short, and it is not advisable to take milk at the same time:

Antibiotics: including tetracycline, oxytetracycline, doxycycline, etc. Because this class of drugs and the calcium ions in milk will form complexes in the intestine, greatly reducing their absorption, reducing their efficacy, or even completely ineffective.

Antihypertensive drugs: Patients with severe hypertension drink milk or dairy products at the same time when using antihypertensive drugs such as Youdening, which may cause a sudden rise in blood pressure, and in severe cases, blood pressure will continue to rise, and even the risk of hypertension will occur. Heart Booster:

When patients with heart failure take drugs such as digitalis and digoxin**, and drink a lot of milk, they are prone to poisoning reactions and even accidents. Iron-containing drugs: Iron deficiency anemia is a common disease in women and children.

The calcium ions in milk can compete with iron in the duodenal absorption site, so that the absorption of iron is reduced, and its efficacy is reduced. Antipsychotic drugs: Drinking milk, breast milk, yogurt, and cheese while taking antipsychotic drugs in patients with mental illness, or children with rickets taking calcium powder or calcium tablets, will reduce the efficacy of drugs.

In addition, milk itself contains calcium, which is used to deliver tablets or other medicines, which can easily cause calcifications in the stomach and intestines, resulting in the ineffectiveness of the medicine, and in severe cases, gallstones and kidney stones. Therefore, the drug should be taken without cow's milk as much as possible, and the baby should be breastfed for a period of time after taking the medicine.

You can't drink milk immediately after taking the medicine, and you must take it after half an hour.

When taking medicine daily, it is best to use warm boiled water to deliver medicine, and it is not advisable to use milk, juice, tea, etc.

At the same time, antibiotics should not be taken with milk and juice. Do not drink milk or juice 2 hours before and after taking antibiotics, because milk can reduce the activity of antibiotics and prevent the full effect of the antibiotics; The fruit acids rich in fruit juices (especially fresh fruit juices) will accelerate the dissolution of antibiotics, which not only reduces the efficacy of the drug, but also may increase the toxicity***.

Do not drink milk for an hour before and after the medicine.

Milk is rich in minerals, calcium, phosphorus, iron, zinc, copper, manganese, molybdenum, etc., and rich in nutrients, many people like to drink milk in the morning, but during the sick medication, you should pay attention not to drink milk within an hour before and after taking medicine. Milk is easy to form a covering film on the surface of the drug, so that the calcium, magnesium and other minerals in the milk react with the drug chemically, forming a water-insoluble substance, hindering the release of the drug in the body.

Milk will form a protective film in the stomach, and the drug cannot be absorbed well, so do not drink milk for two hours before and after taking the medicine. This is also the reason for drinking some milk to protect the stomach before drinking.

Milk can obviously affect the absorption rate of drugs by the human body, and it is easy to make the drug show the formation of a covering film, so that the calcium and magnesium and other mineral ions in the milk react with the drug to produce non-water-soluble substances, which not only reduces the efficacy of the drug, but also may cause harm to the body.

Therefore, it is best not to drink milk for 1 2 hours before and after taking the drug.
