The exact mechanism of action of CBD is not fully known. However, it is known that CBD acts on cannabinoid receptors as a part of the endocannabinoid system. These receptors have effects on mood, appetite, pain, and memory.

DRUG INTERACTIONS/ TOXICOLOGY

CBD has many known drug interactions due to its metabolism by several enzymes. Examples of some drug classes that it interacts with include anticonvulsants, CNS depressants, hepatotoxic drugs, and mechanistic target of rapamycin inhibitors.

Laws

CBD is legal in most states if it has been FDA approved, derived from hemp instead of marijuana, and is under state THC limits.

MONITORING DRUG/ SCREENS

Many drug tests do not screen for CBD because it does not cause intoxicating effects. However, one may still fail a drug test CBD if it is contaminated with THC.

Professional Opinion

In my professional opinion, there is not enough clinical evidence about CBD's safety and efficacy for me to feel comfortable recommending a patient this drug as treatment

There are several drug interactions with CBD and there is potential contamination with THC Until more clinical data is published on the use of CBD, I will not recommend it to patients
