It depends on the release time and transit time. I think the transit time for J Pouchers is less than 4 hours. You need to inquire of the release time of the specific med.

Release time is only part of it. There are different pharmaceutical strategies for extended release, some of which are engineered to release in a specific part of the intestine, and some of which are designed to be metabolized at multiple rates. In general I’d suggest avoiding extended release meds if you lack a colon, since you may get unpredictable results.
