| Grapefruits and medications Grapefruit juice may slow down metabolism and the time it takes to empty your stomach. This can increase the blood concentration of the drug and increase toxic effects. Injected drugs are not affected. Different people are affected differently and some not at all. Different brands of grapefruit juice has different effects in the same people. The strongest interactions occur when you drink grapefruit juice WITH the medication or within 4 hours before taking it. DON’T TAKE GRAPEFRUIT JUICE WITH MEDICATIONS! Continue to eat whole grapefruits. |
