Taking PPI and Aspirin, when?

Posted , 2 users are following.

I take PPI to mainly counter Aspirin but also effects of reflux (slight) with a HHernia. I take the Aspirin at night as I have Brain Isceamia. I was thinking of keeping the Aspirin at night and taking the PPI just before my evening meal on the basis that the PPI takes about an hour to be effective and it then works best for the Aspirin a little later.

Anyone have an opinion on how to combine these two?

Thanks.

    PPIs are best taken on an empty stomach in the morning and aspirin after food.
