Eh, that really would depend on which medicine you are referring to in reality… But those heavier people in the world especially if said meds/vitamins are “fat soluble” that means that it takes fat to filter.said meds out, while water soluble (like vitamin C) meds are filtered out by the kidneys/liver and sent out of the body via your pee. (Is why you can’t have an OD of that mineral just from drinking a ton of OJ/other similar juices/fruits/etc.)
