> Hello, so if guarana´s tannins interfere with the absorption of drugs, will taking guarana apart from your medicines solve the problem or do tannins remain acting for long?.

Sorry you didn't get a timely answer. You want to take the drug well before the tannin, or at least two hours after. The bigger the time separation, the better, but it is a physiochemical interaction (i.e. you need the drug and the tannin to come into physical contact for the uptake inhibition to occur).
