Time of day to take big 3

Hello,
I started the big three in November. I can’t take them at empty stomach because it’s juts to hard on my stomach and I get nauseous. I usually get up at 7:30 do my ACT and have breakfast. At 11 I take all of them with a glass of water and about three crackers. Then I have lunch at 12. This works for me and I check with my ID doctor at NJH and she said that is good. I also have GERD so I don’t eat or drink after dinner.
I hope this helps.

Thanks for your post.
If I start the two antibiotics I was wanting to take them all at the same time and wondered....so glad you posted your routine. Taking the 2 antibiotics in the AM all at the same time is what I will try....if...(still saying that)...I take the antibiotics.
One thing though...for me mornings are all "used up" for doing what one needs to do for caring for oneself with BE/MAC, educating oneself if having questions and concerns, food preparation, food intake and antibiotics if wanting to take them all at the same time to allow for having other required and wanted nutritious foods the rest of the day and while trying to eat just small meals as they suggest.
Same here....no eat or drink 3-4 hours before bedtime due to hiatal hernia.
Challenges we have been given and why we often say to each other "Hang in there."
