Pylera—-Another ? When to take?

Reading online it says that Tetracycline should be taken on an empty stomach and metronidazole may be taken with or without food as well as Bismuth. Also the Pylera pamphlet shows how the 3 pills lose some effectiveness with food. Curious as to why the Pylera box says take after meals? Also does after meals mean right away after eating or an hour later?

Thank you for putting up with my immense confusion.

yea.. it doesnt matter if it is before or after meal. Some people believe that with food, the antibiotics may be diluted. But all these argument is without scientific proves. So you can take whenever you want as long as they are evenly spread out. So the antibiotic concentration stay constantly high in your body.
