In reply to Help please: MAOI's + Grapefruit juice?, posted by FrequentFryer on January 10, 2008, at 23:46:00
> Hi.
> I am going to take some Temazapam to help me sleep but I have a HUGE tollerance to Bezodiazapines so hence I want to drink some Grapefruit juice beforehand so the Temaz actually works.
> Thing is I am taking Nardil and dont know how the Grapefruit juice will effect the MAOI.

> Good, Bad, Ugly?Temazepam is the product of 3A4 acting on diazepam. It would be unaffected by grapefruit. Grapefruit would have no effect on Nardil metabolism. Your plan is not going to help, methinks.
