DESCRIPTION:

Pharmacists Planning Service, Inc. sponsors Food & Drug Interaction Education Week in October.

Consumers are often unaware that some medications are affected by the foods we eat, herbs we consume, what we drink, and even habits like smoking. We call this a food-drug interaction.

Medicine can treat and cure many health problems. However, medications must be taken properly to ensure they are safe and effective. These have potent ingredients that interact with the human body in different ways, and diet and lifestyle can sometimes significantly impact a drug's ability to work in the body. Certain foods, beverages, alcohol, caffeine, and even cigarettes can interact with medication making them less effective or causing dangerous side effects. Changes in a medicine's impact due to an interaction with food, alcohol, or caffeine can be significant. However, many individual factors influence the potential for such variations, like dose, age, weight, sex, and overall health.

Please see the PPSI site http://www.ppsinc.org/fooddrug.htm for complete information on food and drug interactions relating to:

1) Antibiotics
