Question:
i am on crestor 10mg per day. i heard about grapefruit juice and
lipitor. i have bad hip bursitis and don't want to take cortison
shots. i heard pineapple and pineapple juice is a great
antiimflammatory. does anyone know if crestor and/or aleve will
interact with pineapple or papaya ? :?:

Answer:
pineapple juice has a mild anti-inflamation activity, finding the
root of inflamation would resulve your problem. check out
SecretEnergy.com, they may help

Answer:
No, neither will interact, however, if I were you I would worry more
about being on the Crestor itself. While [b:89a583463d]Crestor
[/b:89a583463d]has health benefits in terms of lowering cholesterol
levels, it has been discovered that Crestor can also cause serious
health problems. Crestor has been associated with several adverse side
effects, including myopathy, kidney failure, elevated CPK levels,
elevated liver enzymes, and debilitating muscle pain and weakness.
People who have suffered serious injuries after taking Crestor have
filed suit on the grounds that Astra-Zeneca failed to fully reveal the
dangerous side effects of the drug. Individuals who have been injured
as a result of taking Crestor, and families who have suffered a loss
after a loved one has taken the drug may be eligible to file a claim
against Astra-Zeneca. [b:89a583463d]Lipitor[/b:89a583463d] is a
safe, FDA approved, prescription medication that can naturally reduce
the levels of cholesterol. Physical therapy might give you some
relief from the Bursitis.
