Fexofenadine users should avoid fruit juice, which can cut the drug’s effectiveness by 60%, per NHS advice.
People taking fexofenadine, a common allergy and eczema medication, should avoid fruit juices like orange, apple, and grapefruit, as they can reduce the drug’s effectiveness by up to 60% by interfering with intestinal absorption.
The NHS advises taking the medication with water and avoiding fruit juice for at least two hours before and after dosing to ensure full benefit.
The interaction occurs even with small juice concentrations, but timing adjustments make the precaution manageable for most users.
