DO NOT EAT GRAPEFRUIT IF YOU TAKE OPIOIDS.

I recently learned that compounds in grapefruit juice called furanocouramins increase the blood concentration of both oxycodone and oxymorphone, and in half the time than without grapefruit juice.

Know what that means? The grapefruit juice increases the potency of your normal dose.

THIS IS LIFE-THREATENING.

Grapefruit already interacts with many medications, but this is dangerous. You could overdose. You could die.

Save a Spoonie.

Please pass this on. 💙

Also: activated charcoal. It absorbs meds. Which means, you take your normal meds (including birth control!) and then eat that trendy charcoal-dyed food, bam. You’ve just drastically reduced your dosage of meds. Hope that wasn’t something you needed to be taking.
