In most cases, grapefruit interferes with meds by messing with an enzyme in your intestines called CYP3A4, which plays a role in metabolizing certain drugs. Under normal circumstances, CYP3A4 ...

The level of CYP3A4 expression may determine which patients best respond to certain drugs, and which patients experience side effects or even toxicity when the same dosage is administered.

Both the pitavastatin molecule and the lactone metabolite undergo very little metabolism by CYP3A4 and, therefore, unlike some other statins, does not interact with CYP3A4 substrates. Pitavastatin ...

Characteristics of oral medications that may interact with grapefruit include extensive metabolism through the intestinal cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) system, low bioavailability, and a narrow ...

Concomitant use or discontinuation of CYP3A4 inhibitors or inducers: monitor closely and consider dose adjustments (see full labeling). Dissolve under tongue; do not chew or swallow. The use of ...
