"Products that interfere with the enzymatic breakdown of the drug can significantly (and dangerously) increase blood levels of the drug. For example, the taking of grapefruit juice 'may result in a potentially dangerous increase in fentanyl plasma concentrations. This can, in turn, increase or prolong adverse drug effects and may cause potentially fatal respiratory depression'.
