A member asked:
On the the trazodone it says "avoid alcohol and grape fruit juice, why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Interactions: Trazodone is a sleep medicine and alcohol puts you to a sleep harder so it makes sense to avoid them in combination. Grapefruit has a famous interaction with many medicines because they have compounds called furanocoumarins that inhibit proteins including cyp3a4 and p-glycoprotein. This results in unpredictable effects on many other medications, and trazodone is broken down by cyp3a4.
