∙ 13y agoProbably.
You are probably thinking of not being able to drink or eat grapefruit while taking calcium channel blockers (such as Amlodipene--trade name Norvasc) to lower blood pressure. CCBs work by relaxing the muscle wall of arteries reducing resistance to blood flow. Grapefruit has been shown to negate the effects of this drug.

While taking spironolactone for hair growth can one donate plasma?
I just went to donate plasma for the first time today and I am taking spironolactone. The doctor told me that spironolactone is a diuretic and thins your blood and so in conjunction with the blood thinners they use in the donation process, it is not safe to donate. So I will not be allowed to donate until 48 hours after I have stopped taking spironolactone.

Is it dangerous to get a tattoo if you have a mechanical aorta valve and are on blood thinners?
