A while back, someone who was a medical transcriber told me, that, grapefruit juice was a trick older folks used with their meds to save money. They’d take half the dose prescribed with a glass of grapefruit juice. The medical establishment would frown on that because they would lose money... and it would mess up their statistics.

I don’t know how much of that is true.


...more on using GF juice with Cialis>>>
The standard dose for erectile dysfunction is 20mg., the normal pill dose. However, Cialis is also prescribed for Pulmonary and arterial hypertension, but the recommended dose is 40mg. EVERY DAY!
This leads one to believe that there is little risk in trying, say a 5mg dose with grapefruit juice.
My friend simply bites the 20 mg. pills into a quarter or third and drinks a whole glass of grapefruit juice.
(on an empty stomach, of course.)
