There were no interaction issues known then. About 11 years ago I drank 250 ml of grapefruit juice while driving the Great Ocean Rd (Vic Aust) . Arriving at my first appointment at 8.30 a.m. I just passed out for about 30 seconds, then again for about 3 minutes. I just couldn't stand up. Later found out it was a a drug interaction . Really glad it didn't happen while I was driving. When your blood pressure drops so fast there's not much you can do. I have been taking felodipine for about 17 years .
