Food and Drug interactions:
Be careful what you take your meds with.
- Don’t mix grapefruit with your meds because it can be a toxic combination by raising the level of some medications in the blood.
- Calcium-rich dairy products or antiacids can prevent antibiotics from being properly absorbed into the bloodstream.
- Ginkgo biloba can reduce the effectiveness of blood-thinning medications, raising the risk of a stroke.
- Don’t mix alcohol with meds.
Inform a pharmacist, doctor or professional caregiver of any problems with indigestion, rashes, dizziness or other.
