Reply to "Taking BP med Nifedipine 30mg ER with a J-Pouch"

Thanks Scott! I’ve had issues with hard coated potassium pills not being broken down before they were in the pouch. Changed to a different more chalky version and did fine, so I think you may have given me the solution. Anyone with a pouch meets doctors who aren’t as familiar with the pouch’s effects on the body. I did contact the doctor and ask for another version of the Nifedipine to try and picked it up yesterday. More pills to take each day but will likely work better. I think of myself as a Petri dish😁.
