@wildcat I was told that grapefruit juice and pomegranate juice are never allowed with transplant drugs because they can change the strength of the drugs in unpredictable ways. Just curious, were you told pomegranate juice is ok to consume?

It was my understanding pomelo’s (variation of grapefruit) and grapefruit were no no’s. Can anybody confirm?

@jolinda @wildcat I was also told to not have anything with either grapefruit or pomegranate. I thought maybe I could drink seltzer with
"grapefruit essence" but they told me not even that.

@rodney999 Pomelos are basically grapefruit. Grapefruit was developed from pomelos. There is also an orange that you are not supposed to eat, I think it's Seville oranges.
