Ramipril (Altace) and grapefruit juice - any interaction here?   
After a few dozen internet searches I'm not able to find any piece if
info definitively stating that grapefruit juice does (or does not)
interfer with the metabolism of ramipril / altace.

Sure, there's lots of references about grapefruit juice interfering with
statins.

But my question is -> does grapefruit juice interfere, compete, or
modify the metabolism of ramipril / altace, or does it otherwise enhance
or reduce the effectiveness of ramipril / altace?
