What is it about grapefruit specifically that messes with pretty much every prescription in existence?
In:
Medicines are designed to account for the fact that some of the medicine will get broken down by your liver, so they have more medicine in them than you actually need. Grapefruits have a chemical in them that makes your liver less good at breaking down the medicine, so you end up with more in your system than you’re supposed to.
