Grapefruit Diet and Entrectinib

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Entrectinib and Grapefruit Diet in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — research on Grapefruit Diet alongside specific medications may be limited.

Worth understanding: our licensed dataset holds no drug-interaction record for Grapefruit Diet at all — not against Entrectinib, and not against any other medication we track. This verdict therefore rests on the absence of any recorded data, not on research that looked at this combination and found nothing. We cannot rule an interaction out.

Grapefruit Diet is an eating pattern rather than something you take. Ask your pharmacist or doctor before changing how you eat while on a prescribed medicine: some medicines are dosed around meals, and a change in diet can change how they work. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Grapefruit Diet safety at a glance

Grapefruit Diet overall Use caution Grapefruit is a healthy food, but very low-calorie versions of this diet can be hard to sustain and grapefruit affects many medications.
Pregnancy Use caution Eating grapefruit as food is generally fine, but very low-calorie diets should be avoided during pregnancy.
Breastfeeding Use caution Grapefruit as food is usually fine, but restrictive dieting while breastfeeding is not recommended.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

What Entrectinib’s Own FDA Label Lists

This is not an interaction — none of it involves Grapefruit Diet. These are the most notable effects listed in the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of Entrectinib’s own FDA label, for the medication by itself. Knowing the drug’s own list makes it easier to work out the likely cause if something new turns up while you follow Grapefruit Diet and take the medicine. 10 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

  • Loss of vision Worth acting on
  • Bone thinning Worth acting on
  • Muscle weakness Worth acting on
  • Memory problems Worth acting on
  • Dehydration Worth acting on
  • Trouble swallowing Worth acting on
  • High potassium Worth acting on
  • Unsteadiness Worth acting on
  • Blood clots Worth acting on
  • Hallucinations Worth acting on

Showing the 10 most notable of 53 label-listed effects — ranked by how unusual each one is across medicines generally, with serious effects weighted up.

From the ADVERSE REACTIONS section of the FDA label for Entrectinib. Read the label on DailyMed › Where a percentage is shown, it is the share of 1,653 voluntary FDA FAERS reports for Entrectinib that mention that effect — a reporting proportion, not an incidence rate and not evidence the drug caused it. Grapefruit Diet’s licensed record lists no adverse effects our clinical vocabulary could match, so there is no Grapefruit Diet side to compare — that is a limit of the record, not a statement that Grapefruit Diet has no side effects.

Where does our data come from?
  • Source: the Natural Medicines (TRC Healthcare) clinical database — the evidence-graded professional reference for herb & supplement interactions. Grapefruit Diet is not yet covered by that licensed database, so its write-up cites publicly available medical sources directly (see the references below).
  • Citation library: 103,510 references behind our interaction content, 65,311 of them resolved to verified PubMed/DOI sources. See every Grapefruit Diet reference on this page ↓
  • Freshness: we automatically re-check this combination every week — this pair was last verified September 20, 2026. The Grapefruit Diet and Entrectinib records this page draws on were last updated June 22, 2026.
  • What “no known interaction” means: no documented interaction in the sources above — not a guarantee of safety. Supplements are studied far less than prescription drugs, so we say exactly what the evidence supports, and nothing more.

About Grapefruit Diet

What is Grapefruit Diet?

  • Weight loss
  • Appetite control
  • Short-term dieting
  • Blood sugar support
  • General 'detox' plans

The 'Grapefruit Diet' is a fad eating plan that pairs grapefruit or grapefruit juice with low-calorie meals, claiming the fruit burns fat. Any weight loss is most likely from cutting calories rather than a special fat-burning property of grapefruit. Grapefruit interacts with many medications, so talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting.

Fruit and fruit juice (Citrus paradisi) · Fresh grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and as part of structured low-calorie meal plans; also grapefruit extract capsules sometimes marketed for weight loss

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Grapefruit Diet is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Grapefruit Diet record says about it on its own.

Grapefruit Diet: dosing

There is no standardized or medically established dose for the Grapefruit Diet. Plans typically suggest eating half a grapefruit or drinking a small glass of grapefruit juice with meals, but these amounts vary by version and are not based on solid research.If you choose to add grapefruit to your diet, a reasonable, food-based approach is far safer than a strict, very low-calorie plan.

About Entrectinib

What Is Entrectinib Used For?

Brand name: Rozlytrek

Rozlytrek (entrectinib) is used to treat adult patients with ROS1-positive metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), as confirmed by an FDA-approved test. It is also approved for adult and pediatric patients older than 1 month of age who have solid tumors — any cancer type — that carry an NTRK gene fusion detected by an FDA-approved test, provided the tumor has no known acquired resistance mutation, is metastatic or cannot be surgically removed without severe harm, and has progressed after prior treatment or has no satisfactory alternative therapy.

The NTRK gene fusion approval in solid tumors was granted under accelerated approval, meaning it is based on tumor response rates. Continued approval may depend on results from confirmatory clinical trials.

Most-Reported Side Effects for Entrectinib

From FAERS, the FDA’s public side-effect reporting system (1,653 reports, all brands). Reports are voluntary and are not proof the drug caused the effect.

Dizziness 150 reports
Disease progression 117 reports
Taste disorder 71 reports
Constipation 66 reports
Blood creatinine increased 62 reports
