Hi - there's no choking hazard because Acacia doesn't thicken in the glass like Metamucil does. I've honestly never heard of the breathing hazard for any soluble fiber supplements. I'm sure if you were working in a factory processing tons of the stuff and there was dust in the air this could be a factor, but other than that no worries. You can easily transfer the Acacia to another container, just like you could flour.

For the meds, if you can take them with food you can take them with a soluble fiber supplement. If you have to take the meds on an empty stomach then treat the supplement like food.
