Grapefruit juice : Officially recognized.

[Twizz]

On the news this morning I watched a segment about grapefruit juice (and other juices too), and it's effects on drugs.

They said "Grapefruit juice causes a spike in the effects of some drugs, to near-fatal levels."

I guess it's officially confirmed. However, they also have adverse effects on other drugs, they tried it with some sort of anti-allergenic drug and it reduced it's effects to the point where the drug basically didn't do anything.

so ya think next time ya see a bottle of hydros or percs.. or any opie for that matter... there will now be a warning sticker saying do not take with grapefruit juice?

[Severely stoned]

So what drugs are you talking about specifically...

[Aldousage]

As I understand it, the openly gay reporter was quoting a homophobic source who was actually referring to grapes.

Grapes WILL increase the effects of many psychoactive drugs (up to and including banana skins), but you have to plug about eighty or ninety of the suckers.

I firmly advise against it.

so.. wine + acid or mushies can possibly lead to a more intense trip?

[salmon4me]

All crap, IMHO. Mushies + more mushies = a stronger trip.

Yeah actually a lot of pharmacies already use them (according to the article) but I haven't really seen one yet.

Grapes weren't mentioned in the article, nobody was a fuckin' homo, and why the fuck would you stick grapes up your ass instead of eating a grapefruit if you're trying to get fucked up.

Swallow them down with a beer *burrrrp*. The partial pressure of the C02 from said beverage will increase the alkaloid absorption from the intestine. *burp*

When I get my Valium script there's always a sticker on the bottle advising not to take with grapefruit juice. I asked the pharmacist (not that they are ever much help) and she said that the Valium doesn't work as well when combined with grapefruit juice.

this is why opiate users have been using grapefruit and pineapple juice to potentiate poppy seed or pod tea. it probably has to do with the acid content and lime juice or lemon juice should do the same thing. also it lowers your blood sugar as does vinegar (also an acid) so this may be why it makes you feel higher or you can od.

It has nothing to do with any of that. It's because of enzymes. Grapefruit juice inhibits an enzyme in the liver, causing other drugs to get a boost.

[ratgirldjh69]

well i do notice (i am diabetic) that when i do poppy pods that my blood sugar goes way down.... and also lemon or lime juice makes my blood sugar low too.... enzymes probably has something to do with making your blood sugar lower too
btw - when i am tapering off poppy pods my blood sugar gets really high

Well... I've looked around but i can't seem to find how much GF Juice to take and if before, with or after taking the pills. anybody?

don't quote me on this, but i've heard it's good to take 500ml one hour before dosing on your opiate, and then to take an antacid (idk why, though) with another 500ml of GF juice 45 minutes later (and 15 minutes before dosing).
