1 interaction related to cannabidiol
CBD inhibits the liver enzymes (notably CYP2C9, and also CYP3A4) that clear warfarin, especially its more potent S-enantiomer. Adding CBD to a stable warfarin regimen can slow warfarin breakdown, raise its blood level, push the INR upward, and increase bleeding risk. A published case report described a patient who needed a meaningful warfarin dose reduction after starting CBD.
