Can I take medicine with milk?

When drinking medicine, it is best to take it with boiling water when conditions permit, not with milk. Due to the variety and complex composition of milk in the market, some nutrients such as calcium and zinc may interact with the chemical components in drugs, thus causing a series of adverse reactions to the human body and affecting the absorption of nutrients in milk. Other viscous milk may wrap the drug, affect the decomposition of chemical components in the body, slow down the absorption of drug components, and make the drug unable to play its due role.

It is best not to drink milk during taking the medicine, and it is best to take it with clear water when taking the medicine. It is forbidden to take it with milk, strong tea and drinks, otherwise it will affect some components in the medicine and lead to the failure to give full play to the role of the medicine. Milk contains a lot of calcium. If you drink milk during taking medicine, the calcium in milk will react with the ingredients in the medicine, which will lead to the decrease of the effect of the medicine. Milk itself has the function of protecting gastric mucosa. After drinking milk, milk will form a protective film and adhere to the mucosa, which will affect the absorption of drug components and lead to the failure of the original therapeutic effect. Some people are lactose intolerant. After drinking milk, they will have excessive peristalsis because their intestines can't absorb lactose. At this time, the drugs in the intestine will be excreted quickly and cannot be absorbed by the intestine, so it will also have an impact on the treatment of diseases.
