Eating before a modified barium swallow can interfere with the test results, as it can affect the visibility of the swallowing process in the X-ray images. The test is designed to evaluate how well you swallow and identify any abnormalities, and having food in your system may obscure the findings. It’s generally recommended to follow your healthcare provider's instructions regarding fasting prior to the procedure to ensure accurate results. Always consult your doctor if you have questions about preparation for the test.

Can you eat while drinking Barium Sulfate?
You shouldn't be taking a Barium sulfate suspension unless you're about to have a medical scan. It you're taking this regularly, you need to speak to your doctor. If you are only taking it once (like is normally done before a scan), and you are concerned, you can save up breast milk to use the day after, and then should be able to breast feed again after it has cleared your system without concern. In either case, you should talk to your doctor.

What happens when you take a Modified Barium Swallow test or study?
The Modified Barium Swallow test seeks to show the individual's swallowing pattern and any swallowing problems the patient is experiencing. - No patient preparation is necessary before the test. You can eat and drink normally. - The total study takes about 10 minutes, with 5 minutes of fluoroscope imaging. - Patient is seated or standing. - The patient consumes a small variety of items containing barium, including thin liquid, thick liquid, semi-solid (pudding), solid (cookie) and a barium tablet. - The study is video-recorded for later play-back and analysis. - The testing is done by a Radiologist and a Speech Pathologist (expert in Swallowing Disorders.) - It evaluates swallowing, including oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and cervical esophagus. - It detects the presence of aspiration (getting food in the air tube) and the causes. - If the patient aspirates (inhales food), therapy is provided to help control it. After the examination, you can resume your usual diet and take your usual medications unless told otherwise by your doctor. For a day or two your bowel movements may look white because of the barium. Sometimes the barium can cause temporary constipation, which can be treated by an ordinary laxative. Drinking more fluids for several days following the test can also help.
