It is nowadays well known that grapefruit is a CYP 3A4 enzyme inhibitor. But what about clinical practice? As grapefruit has a significant impact on the pharmacokinetics of some drugs, like felodipine, one can wonder about the ubiquity of this interaction. It is essential for a healthcare professional to be able to advise patients about consumption of this fruit: in which case is it a forbidden fruit, in which case is it a harmless one? This final thesis aims to demystify the underlying mechanisms of pharmacokinetic interactions caused by grapefruit. In this bibliographic research, intrinsic properties of grapefruit will be evaluated to bring out populations most at risk of interaction with grapefruit. Afterwards, an analysis of pharmacokinetic grapefruit interactions mechanisms will follow. Those data will then allow us, with scientific knowledge and case reports, to assess the clinical relevance of grapefruit interactions with important drugs in modern medicine. Finally, clinical perspectives will be suggested, highlighting the potential benefits brought by grapefruit-drug interactions. The main goals of this final thesis are the instruction of the reader about potential interactions caused by grapefruit and sensitization of healthcare professionals about potential effects of food on drugs pharmacokinetics. Il est désormais bien connu que le pamplemousse est un inhibiteur enzymatique du CYP 3A4. Mais qu’en est-il en pratique clinique ? En effet, si le pamplemousse exerce un impact significatif sur la pharmacocinétique de certains médicaments tels que la felodipine, on peut s’interroger quant à l’ubiquité de cette interaction. Il est essentiel pour un professionnel pouvoir conseiller les patients quant à la consommation de ce fruit : dans quel cas est-ce un fruit interdit, dans quel cas est-ce un fruit inoffensif ? C’est pourquoi, ce mémoire vise à démystifier les mécanismes régissant les interactions pharmacocinétiques produites par le pamplemousse. Au cours de ce travail de recherche bibliographique, les propriétés intrinsèques du pamplemousse seront évaluées, afin de mettre en évidence les populations à risque d’interaction avec le pamplemousse. Par la suite, une analyse de mécanismes pharmacocinétiques d’interaction sera réalisée. Ces données permettront ensuite, sur base de données scientifiques et de rapport de cas, d’évaluer la relevance clinique d’interactions avec le pamplemousse et de médicaments importants dans notre médecine moderne. Enfin, il sera proposé quelques perspectives cliniques mettant en avant les bénéfices potentiels que peut apporter l’interaction du pamplemousse avec un principe actif. Les objectifs finaux de ce mémoire sont l’instruction du lecteur sur les interactions potentielles provoquées par le pamplemousse et la sensibilisation des professionnels de la santé sur les effets éventuels de l’alimentation sur la pharmacocinétique d’un traitement médicamenteux.
