What is it about grapefruit specifically that messes with pretty much every prescription in existence?
In:
Hi Everyone,
We’ve locked this post because comments are devolving into a combination of requests for medical advice and actual medical advice. We do not allow any form of medical advice on the subreddit, it can be incredibly dangerous to base prescription dosage decisions based on information from anonymous internet strangers.
The question itself passes the rule because a direct answer to this question cannot make someone not consult their doctor before pursuing a medical decision (not eating grapefruit at any time is not going to hurt you), but the comments have people weighing in with opinions that may.
I know no one likes a locked post, and we are sorry for that, if you have questions you can let us know in mod mail, and if you have any ideas for the sub feel free to use our suggestion box sub of r/IdeasForELI5
Also to pre-empt the “let stupid people die” argument we get every single time we remove a medical question, the answer is unequivocally “no”.
PS: if you see anyone in the comments giving medical advice that could result in problems please report it in case we missed any
