Grapefruit and grapefruit juice, oranges and tangerines were also on the list I got. Some alegery meds as well. There are other medications but I'm not sure what they are any more. I would get direction from my doctor or his nurse. They should have a complete list of the meds that might possibly cause issues and any foods that could present a problem. Wishing you the very best. Endless hugs.
