What?! Why have nobody never told me? I always drink a glass of vitamins in the morning shortly after I take my meds.
Citrus in general, it's why so many meds say not to eat grapefruit
I think grapefruit in particular has an enzyme that interferes with drugs (can increase or decrease effect):

Thanks for providing a link to a (hopefully) trustable source! I was thinking about searching a bit myself but it's crazy at work at the moment so I was going to put it on the "do it later" list, and we all know how that usually works out xD
Don’t know my friend. As I said this is what my ADHD blurted out when I read the original post 🤣 Please check the validity of this yourself but it was something she was advised to avoid.
It's anything acidic from what I have found/read, the pamphlet that comes with mine mentions it. You can get a strong and longer lasting effect if you take calcium carbonate (aka antacids) around the same time.
Same here, I only found this out recently as well and changed my vitamin intake to midday.
