/* Special Precautions of CBD Oil */
There are at least 85 different types of cannabinoids in the cannabis plant. The two most commonly known are Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and Cannabidiol (CBD), which get you “high” and treat epileptic seizures, respectively. Concentrated CBD oil does not contain THC, and therefore is not psychoactive.<br>See also : [[Hemp Oil]]
==Special Precautions of CBD Oil==
* Marijuana may increase the risk See precautions of bleeding when taken with drugs that increase the risk of bleeding. Some examples include aspirin, anticoagulants (blood thinners) such as warfarin (Coumadin®) or heparin, antiplatelet drugs such as clopidogrel (Plavix®), and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®) or naproxen (Naprosyn®, Aleve®).* Marijuana may affect blood sugar levels. Caution is advised when using medications that may also affect blood sugar. People taking drugs for diabetes by mouth or insulin should be monitored closely by a qualified healthcare professional, including a pharmacist. Medication adjustments may be necessary.* Marijuana may cause low blood pressure. Caution is advised in people taking drugs that lower blood pressure.[[Hemp]]
* Cannabidiol can inhibit the cytochrome P-450 system’s ability to metabolize certain drugs, which leads to an overall increase in processing times. This leads to higher levels of the drug in your system at one time, which can cause unwanted side effects and even overdose. Thus, if you are taking a drug affected by cannabidiol, you may need a dosage adjustment in order to take both drugs safely.
