WARNING!

As posted at 11/07/2011 JD from Okc, Oklahoma. Are you not aware of the Deadly mixture, grapefruit and drugs. http://health.yahoo.net/experts/dayinhealth/grapefruit-and-medications-may-be-deadly-mix

As stated here.

Mixing the citrus fruit with the prescription painkiller oxycodone can lead to severe breathing problems, while combining grapefruit and the statin medication Zocor (simvastatin) may spark a potentially life-threatening complication called rhabdomyolysis, in which breakdown of muscle fibers can result in kidney damage of failure.

There are a lot more hazardous drug interactions at the link above.

I do not see a warning about this here so I thought I might bring it to everyones attention.

Take care. art 1a.
