Anyone Ever Take White Grapefruit Juice To Help Potentiate Their Pk's?

[John Benson]

The white gf juice and tonic seems to work for me with benz and pk. Sometimes I drink it 45 mins before, and sometimes with. Sometimes I will even stir it up with some kratim. That also seems more effective.

I should also add that if you are also a user of study aids,  this drink will have the opposite effect. At least that's been my experience. There's info out there that explains why.  Just thought I should mention that. 

Thanks

You can also try taking it with Tagamet, the over the counter ant-acid. It works similarly to the grapefruit juice in terms of slowing how fast your body metabolizes the vicodin. Also if you're using grapefruit juice, don't waste your time on the juice cocktail or the concentrate. It has to be real grapefruit juice. If you can stand it, eat a whole grapefruit 30 minutes before taking your pill or go find real 100% grapefruit juice. I dont think it matters if it's red or white, but I've heard white works "better"

I like the above posters advice. I bought the grapefruit juice ages ago and it's unopened in the back of the frig. Every time I thought of trying it, I was reminded that I really don't like grapefruit juice.

What was I thinking? ?

Some of us can't drink vodka any more :-(

Lol, just kidding about the about the :-(

At least at the moment. Got to watch out for that mofo every day.Crap ,drifted ot. Sorry sorry sorry. But 2earls brought up a great point,  vodka is an excellent way to potentiate your ops. Before,  with,  after. It really doesn't matter.

Funny...I belong to several Kratom forums, and nearly everyone uses 100% white grapefruit juice as a potentiator. I've got candida, and can't drink juice without the candida flaring up, so for me, I use turmeric extract with black pepper essential oil as potentiator.  It definitely works.  Doesn't make the pain killing effect any greater for me--but it makes it last longer--4 hours instead of 2. 

Has to be white, not pink/red grapefruit juice. White has some special enzyme that makes it work. And make sure it's 100% juice--no sugar or other juices added. (Read the ingredients on the bottle).

I didn't know it might potentiate other pain meds. Just learned that here. I know that antihistamines (like benadryl) potentiate pain meds.  And I also just read recently that magnesium glycinate, taken on a regular basis, not only mildly potentiates the pain meds, but also helps prevent addiction.

Oh yeah, I've heard this. Something about how it metabolizes the compound and slows it down. Personally, I find grapefruit juice disgusting and would rather use a nice Glenmorangie 18 to "bound my compounds" /default_smile.png
