The chemicals in grapefruit that inhibit drugs are also (in smaller quantities) in other citrus fruit and in apples.
But my pills interact with all kinds of stuff. Have to avoid zinc, iron, potassium, sunlight, citrus,... And calcium for several hours before and after. Still, better than my friend, who for 3 years, was only allowed to eat pineapple. She now recoils from pineapple because of that.
