I think it would take a whole lot of grapefruit, plus an overdose of meds to make any considerable differences.
Aside from liver metabolism, I was wondering about gastric absorbtion/digestion.
I know some forms of stimulants are less effective if taken with food, since gastric acid increases it's catabolism.
I know Concerta is uneffected by food, but think that Ritalin was the one which is less effective w/food. So I was think PPI's may help?!
I don't know of anything else off-hand about the BDZ interactions, beside meds metabolisms in the CYP34A. But I know there are other ways to prolong its use.
