I know my husband isn't supposed to drink grapefruit juice because he takes
lipitor and apparently the grapefruit juice interferes with its
effectiveness. I wonder if it interacts with zoloft, trazadone,
librium.....I'll have to
look into it. I have a general idea what a "psychotropic" is but I'm not
sure what the specific requirements are to qualify a medication as that. Now
I
have to do a bunch of research.

You may never have needed to take them, or you may
have taken them and found they didn't help: they don't
work for everybody.

I imagine it depends on how high the blood pressure
is.
