Nilotinib and Figs

Categories:

Hi all,

Is it ok to eat figs (fruit) when on Nilotinib.

Sure is. The reason some fruits can’t be eaten is because of an enzyme called CYP3A4- and figs don’t appear to cause issues with that. 

Hello David,
Im taking nilotinib.they told me to avoid everything that tastes sour,which includes all citrus fruits, tamarind,mango etc.

Can i eat carissa carandas(extreme sour taste).
