Try taking the whole 50 mgs at night as it's generally an initial bout with nausea that occurs during the first month of taking 6mp. I take my 6MP in the morning along with the rest of my daily meds but I've never experienced nausea from 6MP, myself.
When you take asacol, it's anti-inflammatory medication is both deployed and then purged from the body in less than 24 hours (so important not to miss doses). Asacol has a direct effect on the body on the day it's taken.
It really makes no difference when you take your 6mp, as it's an extremely slow working medication. There's about a 6 week lag time from when you take your 6mp pill and when it's effect is felt within your body. This is because 6mp is designed to slow the rate in which your body produces WBC, and 6mp cannot touch the WBC that are already available within your circulatory system. Your body will purge the WBCs within your circulatory system at regular intervals and it's then that your 6mp pill has an impact. Taking a 6mp pill has an indirect effect on your daily symptoms. It's just important to maintain a consistent level of the medication.
