Fruit Juice Decreases Drug Effects

According to a recent Canadian study drinking fruit juices while taking prescription drugs is not advisable for patients using prescription drugs. Common fruit juice like grapefruit, apple and orange can have adverse effects on certain drugs.

We discovered that grapefruit and these other fruit juices substantially decrease the oral absorption of certain drugs undergoing intestinal uptake transport. The concern is loss of benefit of medications essential for the treatment of serious medical conditions.

The researchers say drinking fruit juice while taking certain drugs decreases their absorption and potentially wipes out their beneficial effects. The study was made in the University of Western Ontario, US.
