Let the label lead
Follow product directions for timing, food, water, storage, and serving size unless your clinician gives different instructions.

A simple routine you can follow is often more useful than a complex schedule. Daily packets and reminders can reduce decision fatigue.
Check medicine spacing
Some supplements can affect how medicines are absorbed or act. A pharmacist or clinician can help review timing and interaction questions.
