I know that we have to take out medication, but does the time that we take it matter?
I am because I’ve noticed I’ve slipped into the habit of taking my meds on a night time almost as an afterthought just before I go to bed and not with it straight after I’ve eaten my evening meal. So my question is, does it matter when I take my meds? Or does it not matter as long as I take them at some time?
Hi
Thank you for your question and well done for taking your medication. You have not mentioned which medications you are taking, but It is important to take your prescribed medication as per the instructions given by your healthcare team/medication instructions. Some medications do need to be taken with food.
The best thing to do is to start linking healthy habits with your existing habits that you already do automatically e.g. eating in your case.
How could you set yourself a reminder to take your medication after eating?
Hope this helps
Paul
