Abstract

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the most important components of the Cannabis sativa plant with delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). CBD is used both for medical and recreational purposes. It can be of pharmaceutical grade (Epidyolex®), and also self-service purchased in pharmacy, CBD shops and on the internet (non-pharmaceutical). CBD is almost as widespread as it is poorly understood from a pharmacological point of view and particularly in terms of drug interactions. Drug-drug interactions could lead to clinical complications, and we here gather data currently available on pharmacokinetics (PK) drug-drug interactions with CBD through a narrative review. This review shows that several PK drug-drug interactions exist with different class of medications and aims to help clinicians to better know about CBD for their practice as this product is increasingly used.
