Possible Interaction: Lovastatin and Naringin

supplement:

Naringin

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Both naringin and vitamin C could reduce the binding stability of lovastatin to pepsin and α-chymotrypsin, increasing concentration of free lovastatin.
That is, naringin or vitamin C in the fruit or food may increase the blood concentration of lovastatin ; perhaps taking frequency or dosage of lovastatin may be reduced.
