CBD Oil and Medication Interactions: What You Should Know

CBD can affect how other medicines work.

This is particularly important for people taking multiple prescription medications.

FDA warns that CBD may affect how other drugs work and that combining CBD with alcohol or medicines that slow brain activity may increase sedation and drowsiness.

Before Using CBD

Tell your healthcare provider about:

• Prescription medicines
• OTC medicines
• Antidepressants
• Anti-anxiety medicines
• Pain medications
• Sleep medicines
• Supplements

Do not assume that a product is safe simply because it is labeled “natural.”
