Conflicting advice on taking pysillium husks with arvs
(1/1)
wardp:
I've been experimenting with different approaches to my constipation, I am now going to add Psyillium husk capsules or powder etc to my diet,I have read so many conflicting advice online about the timing of taking Psyillium? Some say 2 hrs before arvs or 2 hrs after to avoid risk of non absorption of meds,has anyone got any advice on timing when taking Psyillium or do you air on the side of caution?
Jim Allen:
Hiya,
Plenty of things need to be avoided, plenty of things that just can't be taken at the same time with other meds, for example, don't take within 1 hour prior or within 2 hours after.

Psyillium and lamivir and nevirapine right? No idea; I normally check drugs.com whenever taking anything and if in doubt, I double-check with the pharmacist.
I would suggest you best talk to your pharmacist on this one.

Thanks Jim, yes I will take your advice on psyllium and take 1 hr before my meds.
