Do you ever forget...

Thank you, I've done that, but nowhere does it say why you need to take them an hour or two before and after meals, and why you can't lay down. Pills usually should be taken with a meal.

In a lot of instances, food affects the absorption of the medication, and if you have food on your stomach, you may not be getting the full benefit of that med. As far as laying down, you usually hear of that where the possibility of reflux could cause damage to the esophagus, so there must be some ingredient in that med that could do this.

Hope this helps!
