Is it safe to eat grapefruit while taking triamterene hctz?
If you take amlodipine -- or any other kind of calcium channel blocker -- do not take them with grapefruit, grapefruit juice or grapefruit dietary supplements, because serious, possibly fatal, reactions may occur. Grapefruit inhibits your CYP34A enzyme, a protein that helps your body metabolize drugs. When your body fails to properly metabolize drugs, you may end up with more of amlodipine in your system than intended, causing an accidental overdose. Some drugs -- and some people -- react more strongly than others to the effect of grapefruit on your CYP34A enzyme.
