The outside coating of a pill is made up of different stuff on the inside. Inside is the actual medicine, but the hard membrane that covers the pill gets dissolved in your stomach acid when you digest it. The chemicals then get processed the same way regular food does, which is why many pills ask to be taken with meals so they can be processed better.
