Common Questions and Answers about Vicodin grapefruit
vicodin
my husband was addicted to Vicodin,Percoset ,drinking, etc. he schemed and scammed to get the pills. he often stolled scripts from drs offices and wrote his own medication. well, he finally got caught, went jail and was sentenced for 3 yrs upstate. i tried ton convince the ada to put him into treatment because he was an addict but the courts dont really care.
he went upstate to Elmira correctional facility but he was still addicted.
I was prescribed with vicodin for the pain and birth control to try and level out my hormones. My question is should I just go ahead and push for the surgery or should i wait it out and see if it goes away on it's own. My fear is that if I wait too long it will rupture or twist and cause me more severe pain (like before) or also grow in size and risk losing my right ovary all together. My OBGYN doesn't seem worried at all and i am freaking out about it. Someone please help me!

I avoid grapefruit because it interacts with simvastatin and oxycodone. If you are taking other medications please check with the respective provider and the pharmacist about interaction with grapefruit.
A Potential for Adverse Events
Many patients may take their medications with a glass of juice. However, since the accidental discovery of an interaction between the calcium channel blocker, felodipine, with grapefruit juice,1 it has now become evident that grapefruit juice has the potential to alter the plasma concentrations of many medications when they are taken by mouth. In some cases, this may result in undesirable clinical effects of medications.
Hi I did a search and found this, it appears it is just the grapefruit juice. My Mom was told not to eat grapefruit with her Synthroid. I think it can increase that dose as well.

Do you mean with olysio, grapefruit not allowed ?
I decided I was going to lose weight and eat healthy this year so about a 11/2 week ago someone told me that grapefruit helped with weight loss. I started drinking 2 8oz (I think) cans of juice a day for 7 days and I was adding grapefruit essential oil drops to my water. I didn't really feel different I was sweating more but I thought it was from the grapefruit working and I wasn't sleeping hardly at all.

It was explained to me that grapefruit may cause a allergic reaction with the PI's. They did not mention lemons and I put lemon or lime in my water daily. Now I'm not suppose to be doing that? OOh **** one more thing to worry about! Lol !

I have been taking vicodin for 5 years now and it started out as a result of a injury and now it has become a full addiction. I am taking about 10 to 12 a day. I take two during the day at work and then when I get home is when I take the rest. I function normally to a certain extent. I work 45 to 50 hours a week in a very stressfull job and do my job very well. I feel like I have changed so much since the addiction began.

Research about the interaction of grapefruit juice with drugs suggests that compounds in grapefruit juice, called furanocoumarins (for example, bergamottin), may be responsible for the effects of grapefruit juice. Researchers believe that furanocoumarins block the enzymes in the intestines that normally break down many drugs. One glass of grapefruit juice could elicit the maximum blocking effect, and the effect may persist for longer than 24 hours.
can I drink the juice of 1 grapefruit a day, if I am taking metoprolol and fosinopril for blood pressure? My blood pressure is completely controled.
