Grapefruit juice can decrease blood levels of levothyroxine, potentially decreasing the effectiveness of levothyroxine. Clinical research shows that grapefruit juice modestly decreases levothyroxine levels by 11% by inhibiting organic anion transporting polypeptide (OATP). Grapefruit juice is thought to affect OATP for only a short time.
Consuming grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or even orange juice can reduce the absorption of levothyroxine and reduce its effectiveness.
grapefruit juice. Conclusions Grapefruit juice may slightly delay the absorption of levothyroxine, but it seems to have only a minor effect on its bioavailability. Accordingly, the clinical relevance of the grapefruit juice-levothyroxine interaction is likely to be small. Introduction Grapefruit juice increases the plasma concentrations of

The effect of grapefruit on levothyroxine is the opposite: Drinking grapefruit juice or orange juice can inhibit uptake transporters and reduce the drug s absorption.
