Pimavanserin 34mg, Oral capsule
• Interaction: Marijuana• Severity: Major• Notes for Consumers: Avoid combining Pimavanserin and marijuana. This combination may cause your condition to get worse. Marijuana may also decrease the efficacy of Pimavanserin, making it not work as well for you. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how this combination will affect you. Contact your health care provider right away if you notice unusual changes in moods or behaviors of any type.• Notes for Professionals: It is recommended that patients avoid the use of marijuana, by any route, if they are treated for a psychiatric history, including psychosis and bipolar disorder, as the cannabinoids (the psychoactive ingredients, such as THC) in marijuana can produce psychotoxic effects and may exacerbate psychiatric disorders. A high frequency of use and use of products with high-potency of THC are potential risk factors for psychiatric effects. Additionally, additive CNS effects, such as sedation or CNS depression are possible. Clinical studies suggest that cannabis use may reduce the efficacy of some antipsychotic drugs. In addition, several cannabinoids in marijuana appear to influence the activity of CYP enzymes and P-glycoprotein, which may alter the concentrations of antipsychotics and influence either safety or efficacy.
