Can Baraclude 1mg Be Taken Irrespective Of The Time Of The Meal?

I am just started to take baraclude 1mg and become about a week now.

this medicine suppose to take 2 hours before or after 2hours meal which is very hard for me.

How about just take no matter when I take a meal.

I aready tried other medicine with food or without food but there was a side effect. so my doctor

changed to baraclude.
