Can polytheylene glycol bind with any / certain medications, making the medication less effective?

I don't think polyethylene glycol actually binds to any medicines but oral medication administered within one hour of the start of administration of Polyethylene Glycol 3350, Sodium Chloride, Sodium Bicarbonate and Potassium Chloride for Oral Solution may be flushed from the gastrointestinal tract and not absorbed, therefore reducing it's effectiveness.
