Statins
5 Answers
I've recently started taking Simvastin tablets, on the packet it says to avoid grapefruit & pineapple, but I like to have a glass of warm water with lemon juice in it in the morning - should I be drinking this, or should I avoid this as well ?
Thanks in advance

Grapefruit has an adverse effect on many medicines, but I have never heard anything about lemon juice or pineapple.
