What happens when your body does not digest pills?

When your body does not properly digest pills, it can lead to reduced effectiveness of the medication, as the active ingredients may not be absorbed into the bloodstream. This can result in inadequate treatment of the condition being addressed, potentially causing symptoms to persist or worsen. Additionally, undigested pills can cause gastrointestinal discomfort or blockages. In some cases, it may indicate an underlying health issue affecting digestion or absorption.
