when SWMBO was taking weekly injections of Avonex - a beta interferon
for MS. In some people it can produce a ****ty 24-48 hours of "flu
like symptoms", and it did in SWMBO. However, buried in a magazine
was a tip that eating*fresh* pineapple before the injection would
greatly reduce this. SWMBO tried it, and it eliminated these effects.
Being of a scientific bent, she experimented and confirmed that
eating pineapple prevented side effects. Not eating it and they
developed.


Does pineapple have an undesirable interaction with the drug, the same
way that grapefruit can?
