Can milk and medicine be taken together?

Milk can be taken together with certain drugs, but some drugs should never be taken with milk. The drugs that can be taken with milk are fat-soluble vitamins, such as vitamin E, which can be taken with milk at the same time, and can reduce the corrosive effect of vitamin E on the mucous membrane of the gastrointestinal tract and achieve an ideal effect on the absorption of vitamin E. In addition, there are some antiviral drugs that can be taken with milk, such as ribavirin, ganciclovir, acyclovir and other drugs, which can be taken with milk to enhance the absorption of the drug and reduce the stimulation of the gastrointestinal tract by antiviral drugs. However, milk should not be drunk at the same time as Chinese medicine, such as anti-inflammatory and antiviral Chinese medicine, Banlangen, Shuanghuanglian, Pu Di Lan, Da Ye Qing, Chai Hu granules, Huo Xiang Zheng Qi Liquid, are not recommended to be taken at the same time with milk. Western medicines such as anti-inflammatory drugs, cephalosporins, azithromycin, and ofloxacin are also not recommended to be taken together with milk, as taking them together with milk will reduce the effectiveness of the drugs.
