Abstract

A drug-nutrient interaction occurs when a drug is taken with food and/or dietary supplements, potentially altering the absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion of the drug. These interactions may result in increased side effects or toxicity of the drug, decreased therapeutic efficacy, nutrient imbalances or depletion, or changes in the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of the drug being used. It is estimated that more than 20% of adults take at least one dietary supplement daily, highlighting the importance of patients taking their medications, diet, and supplements together. The management of chronic diseases, many of which are treated with drugs known to cause interactions, typically spans many years. This underscores the importance and requirement of collaboration between pharmacy, nursing, and dietitians to manage patient care.
