Re: Grapefruit & Prescription Drug Interaction

I'm on Paxil, I was told about a decade ago by my doctor not to take anything with grapefruit in it. Thankfully, I can't stand graprefruit.

Are you in the US?

I'm glad your doctor told you :)

I take a lot of meds and I swear they cause side effects which cause me to take more meds!

Oddly, none of my meds were on the list, but, if it helped you or anyone else in this group, I'm happy about that! I had no idea!

Re: Grapefruit & Prescription Drug Interaction

Isn't it weird? I heard about drug interactions with grapefruits and I was like "get lost!" but it's indeed the case.

Re: Grapefruit & Prescription Drug Interaction

About a month ago, for the first time since I started taking my Quetiapine (an anti-psychotic medication) which was about 5 years ago I actually read through the whole of the leaflet in the box and noticed it said to avoid grapefruit. Luckily I don't have it much but I thought it was strange.

Never heard it called that! I have a friend there.

I guess we all have pet names for our cities. I'm in Killadelphia/Filthydelphia.
