> Have any of you ever had the feeling that your medication might not be dissolving properly, and that if it had better solubility, maybe it would work better? On more than several occasions, I've the unpleasant experience (sorry about this, it's kind of graphic and disgusting) of seeing some medicines in the toilet bowl, if you know what I mean. In other words, after I swallowed them, they never dissolved, but just passed through, whole, even though I drank a full glass of water with the drug.

It may indicate that you are hypochlorhydric, or achlorhydric. (Low or no stomach acid.)

Both conditions can be innate (the way you are), or acquired (due to e.g. stomach medicines).

There are ways to boost stomach acid formation, without promoting dyspepsia (upset stomach) or reflux (hearburn). Those are alternative solutions, and I'll talk about them next door....maybe tomorrow? I'm awful busy just now.
