Anyone Who Takes Amlodipine For HBP Must NOT Eat Grapefruit - Dr Kemi Olunloye by ModelLook(m): 10:48am On May 06, 2022

The most commonly used High Blood Pressure drug in Nigeria ��is a Calcium channel blocker type HBP drug called Amliopidine 10mg /20mg. If you know anyone taking it they must NOT drink grapefruit juice or eat grapefruit in any form. It can cause cardiac arrhythmia, arrest, heart attack �⚰️ We lost many patients to this in America late 90’s.

“The GP and MD’s in the western world will always indicate it on this medication as shown here. I trust Nigerian doctors too mention it but not sure if they go as far as printing on the medication” said a follower

NO‼️Nigeria does not use prescription labels in Pharmacies, in fact Physician dispensing has not allowed that. Your meds are in ziplock bags no name of drug or patient. Nigerians don’t know what they are taking till it comes in a manufacturer’s box.
NAFDAC MYST REGULATE THIS‼️

In America we call it Auxiliary labels. Always ask your pharmacist about questions and caution ⚠️ about your medications�

Forward to coworkers and family. Juices with 5 � citrus fruits are a no no‼️One is grapefruit. I don’t mention brands. If they want juice, plain juices are available but never the citrus combinations. Many ppl died in America during my active Pharmacy practice. ⚠️☠️�

KEMIFIED IS WELLNESS FOR NIGERIANS ��
