Quite incredible! I was looking at the bar code on the side and I'm curious - did you do it accurately or just random lines? Doesn't really matter though.

Amazing painting and as a pharmacist I love the reference.

EDIT: The reference being grapefruit juice is known limit the activity of an important enzyme called 3A4. Many important drugs are metabolized by 3A4. Inhibiting their metabolism leads to higher concentrations in the body that can cause serious side effects.

Google tells me this is Diazepam. Am I correct?
