I was in the hospital for almost two months for premature labor with our twins (41 years ago) and I was a baby myself (20)…I was so young and naive and dutiful…whatever the nurses told me to do, I did. I was given with my breakfast every morning three things, my prenatal horse pill vitamin, an iron pill and a Colace. Normally I would eat then take my cocktail. This one morning a couple of fresh young (as me at the time) newbie nursing assistants came in before my breakfast arrived and they handed me my cocktail. They told me to take them right then and there. I told them I hadn’t eaten yet and they proclaimed all would be well and to take them anyway…no worries. Well, I had barely gotten down the last pill when my body decided to “regift” them. It startled the newbies of course and they scrambled to help me apologizing the entire time. My nurse who had been by my side for the entire time of my extended stay was in the hallway and came running in to see what had happened. 😂 She promptly scolded the two and schooled them on how to “never do that again!” 😂 She told them they were never allowed back in my room…I never saw those two poor things again…bless their hearts and I never took another pill on an empty stomach!😂😂😂

As a pharmacist I feel I should mention that there are meds that must be taken with food to be absorbed, e.g. nitrofurantoin for UTI. If the prescription label says take with food please do so. Fat soluble vitamins (ADEK) are absorbed with the fat in your food and obviously need to be taken with food. Taking an nsaid like ibuprofen, meloxicam, naproxen with food greatly decreases the side effect of nausea as some of you have mentioned. Please use some discernment in taking this advice from Dr Boz. Honestly I have agreed with everything else she has said on the many YouTube videos I have listened to.

If I take a multivitamin or advil on an empty stomach… oh.. watch out. I get stomach pains and nauseous almost immediately.

[ginaroche]

You are the first Doctor to ever explain this to me. Thank you.😊

[WhyIneedGoogleHandle]

l get a headache if l don't take my meds with food. Greetings from South America.

Vit D makes me unwell on an empty stomach.

[Puglover]

Sometimes it really does cause gut rot. Especially if you’re prone to nausea. I’ve been on some hard core antibiotics that would make me sick all day if I didn’t have something with it.

But what’s the big deal, it’s not like we have to have carbs with it. You could have a low carb high protein snack, or time your meds to coincide with your meals

If I take ibuprofen on an empty stomach, I puke it

[karenmonson]

I have taken over the counter ibuprofen without food. I think it's more important to follow the dosing directions unless instructed by a doctor. I did take perscription strength Ibuprofen for menstral cramps which was prescribed by my OB/Gyn when I went in for my yearly physical. The perscription directions said to take with food for possible stonach upset. I always did.

[JoannaKlekawka-xcbv]

What??? 😮 That's what doctors always said, take it with food to prevent stomach issues!

[brinhaerycammel]

This Doc is a honey!! I could feign being sick for an occasional visit to this lovely!

[Michele-rva]

I was thinking this exactly lately. Thank you for this post!

[YeshuaKingMessiah]

The nausea is abated when stomach has food for nsaids
My daughter literally throws up

[anastasiabeaverhausen]

I avoid them for the most part because of the effect on my stomach. When I do take them, I have to eat something. I don’t consider it a snack. Most times I will take them with eggs or a protein of some kind, but never on an empty stomach. I will be so sick if I do. Never fails.

[jenniferkillingsworth]

Oh this is good information! I needed to hear this!

[modelsupplies]

They are constantly pushing snacking on us! Thank you! Never thought of this one!!

[corinnespanelewski]

I find in most cases I didn’t drink enough water with my Motrin if I get stomach upset. I am going to master fasting to get rid of the Motrin.

[veronikamcduffey]

Wow, I never thought of that. Ibuprofen upsets my stomache so I always take fats with it but that is still snacking

[sammychem]

For quite a few people, a lot of meds without food can cause gas, diarrhea, etc. So food helps to process those meds without causing upset stomach. Some people just have sensitive digestive systems, we need to acknowledge that.

If I don't take vitamins or pills with some sort of bread I yak it up. I can't do fruit or vegetables either. So homemade keto bagels it is.
