    • Notes for Professionals: The incidence of marijuana associated adverse effects may change following coadministration with fluorouracil, 5-FU. Fluorouracil is an inhibitor of CYP2C9, an isoenzyme partially responsible for the metabolism of marijuana's most psychoactive compound, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Delta-9-THC). When given concurrently with fluorouracil, the amount of Delta-9-THC converted to the active metabolite 11-hydroxy-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-THC) may be reduced. These changes in Delta-9-THC and 11-OH-THC plasma concentrations may result in an altered marijuana adverse event profile.
