Grapefruit and medication question?
I take several medications, citalopram, lisinopril, and I just started taking simvastatin.
I just ate a grapefruit and noticed realized that there are some medications that can interact with grapefruits.
I only ate one but I am paranoid that something will happen to me. Should I call my doctor or just ride it out and not eat any grapefruits anymore?

No need to be paranoid. If you feel ok then you are ok. Grapefruit can make some meds over or under perform. It isn’t likely to cause major disruption from a single grapefruit. Generally it is the juice that causes the most problem.

Although the other were informative I wanted more of a reassurance that one was not going to hurt. I like the fact that he stated not to be scared for I was at the moment.
