Choose apple juice, orange juice, or cranberry juice. These fruit juices don’t interact with Viagra in the same way grapefruit juice does.
Other Suitable Beverages
Water remains your best option for hydration. Unsweetened tea (herbal or black) also provides a refreshing alternative.
Understanding the Interaction
Grapefruit juice inhibits certain enzymes in your liver that process Viagra. This slows down the breakdown of Viagra, potentially leading to higher concentrations in your bloodstream and increased risk of side effects. Other juices generally don’t have this effect.
