Expert Answer :
No, all medicines can be mixed with milk or juice. Some medicines, such as didanosine, ganciclovir, etc., need to be given either 2 hours prior to food or after 2 hours. Rifampicin needs to be given on an empty stomach. You will need to check the prescribing information of each medication to see what needs to be done.
