Acacia doses spread out vs twice a day?

I have been using the acacia powder for a little over a year and a half now and I was wondering if anyone has used the acacia spread out into small doses all day long versus just morning and night.

I take the acacia in 1/2 tsp doses. I take it when I wake up in the morning, then I take it every few hours or so, ALWAYS right before any kind of meal or snack, with the last dose at bedtime. Overall I take between 3 and 4 tsp a day. I also take my medication every 4 hours(20mg of Bentyl and a peppermint capsule).

My questions are, would it be better to take a bigger dose twice a day, or is the way I'm doing it okay?

And secondly, should I take the acacia before taking the medicines, or does it make a difference? Right now I usually take my medicine first before the acacia.

Thanks to anyone who replies!
