Habit 1: Consuming Grapefruit or Grapefruit Juice
Many people enjoy a glass of fresh grapefruit juice in the morning without realizing it can change how amlodipine moves through your body. Health organizations like the NHS note that large amounts of grapefruit or its juice can raise the concentration of the medication, which may increase the chance of side effects such as flushing, headaches, or swelling. This happens because certain compounds in grapefruit slow down the liver enzymes that normally break down amlodipine.
