Medication checker

Check your medications against cannabis

Type every prescription you take. The checker matches each name to a drug class in a pharmacist-reviewed reference and tells you what interacts, why, and what to do about it. It never says a combination is fine; it only reports what the reference covers.

2 interactions found, highest: Moderate risk

Sorted highest risk first. Two medications from the same class are shown as one finding, because the interaction belongs to the class.

Moderate riskYou typed: oxycodone

Opioids

Why it happens: Both depress the central nervous system, so the effects add up. Cannabis can also lower opioid tolerance in some patients.
What it means for you: Mild slowing of breathing is plausible when the two are combined. At the same time, some patients use cannabis to bring their opioid dose down.
What Tiffany advises: Let your pain management physician know. Many are supportive when cannabis helps a patient lower the opioid dose.

Moderate riskYou typed: zolpidem

Z-drugs and sleep aids

Why it happens: Both depress the central nervous system, and both add to the chance of a fall overnight.
What it means for you: Combining them raises the odds of next-day grogginess and of a stumble on the way to the bathroom at night.
What Tiffany advises: If cannabis is working for your sleep, many patients are able to stop the prescription aid. Plan that taper with your prescriber rather than stopping cold.
