There are multiple interactions reported between these two agents.

Interaction Details

rosiglitazone, glimepiride is classified as belonging to the following category: Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, cannabidiol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
In vitro and animal research shows that cannabidiol inhibits CYP2C9. In human studies, cannabidiol has been associated with an increase in plasma levels of topiramate, a CYP2C9 and CYP2C19 substrate. However, this effect has not been confirmed with other CYP2C9 substrates in humans. Theoretically, concomitant use of cannabidiol with CYP2C9 substrates might increase the risk for adverse effects from these substrates.
