Can milk be given with meds??


Answers: Sure as long as you are not lactose intolerant.
There are some medications that will react adversely with milk. So the answer to that is NO. However, when I was training as a medic in the Army, we were taught that if you can't get a soldier to take his meds any other way, giving him a beer with them was acceptable.
Yes and no. Milk will delay or inhibit the absorption of several meds, especially antibiotics. In general, take antibiotics either one hour before or two hours after drinking milk. For more specific information, ask your pharmacist. This might be mentioned on the information sheet you received with your prescription.
Yes.....sure it can and it is good to
Sure. Just don't use any acidic drink like grape fruit or orange juice.
I have read multiple articles that claim all meds should be taken with a full glass of water to be best effective, except some meds state to take with food or milk so as not to upset your stomach. A few that absolutely cannot be taken with milk will have a warning label on them. You can call your pharmacist if you're not sure.
nope
It depends on what ones your talking about. It's always best to ask the pharmacist.
I don't see why not,milk makes it alot easier to go down sometimes!
Depends on the medicine. Check with your pharmacist and/or read the bottle label. Usually a medicine bottle label will provide a warning on any drinks to avoid, such as grapefruit juice, etc. But if in doubt, please check with your pharmacist.
