Can I Take CBD with Other Supplements or Medications?

CBD is widely regarded as safe, but if you’re taking supplements or medications, it’s important to consider potential interactions. At UnCanna, we emphasize informed use and responsible integration of CBD into your routine.

How CBD Interacts with the Body

CBD is metabolized by enzymes in the liver, specifically the cytochrome P450 system, which also processes many medications and supplements. This can:

• Enhance: Increase the effects of certain medications or supplements.
• Inhibit: Slow down the breakdown of others, potentially leading to higher concentrations in the body.

Common Supplements Paired with CBD

• Magnesium: Complements CBD’s calming effects for stress relief and muscle recovery.
• Melatonin: Enhances CBD’s sleep-promoting benefits.
• Adaptogens (e.g., Ashwagandha): Work synergistically to manage stress and cortisol levels.

Medications and Caution

If you’re taking blood thinners, antidepressants, or other medications, consult your healthcare provider before starting CBD. While most people experience no issues, safety should always come first.
