ANTIHISTAMINES AND GRAPEFRUIT JUICE

Grapefruit juice causes terfenadine to accumulate in the body, increasing the risk of serious cardiotoxicity (prolongation of the QTc interval) and the possibility of torsade de pointes arrhythmia. Consider drugs that prolong the QT interval.
Concurrent use is contraindicated.
