Cannabichromene (cbc) and Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Methocarbamol

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

CNS DEPRESSANTS

Why this applies to Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Methocarbamol

Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Methocarbamol falls under CNS DEPRESSANTS — the group Cannabichromene (cbc) interacts with.

Using cannabichromene with drugs that have sedative properties may cause additive therapeutic and adverse effects.
Animal research shows that cannabichromene, given as a single dose intraperitoneally, increases the sedative response to the drugs hexobarbital, barbital, and zoxazolamine. However, this effect was not maintained when cannabichromene was given continuously. After receiving cannabichromene daily for 7 days, the sedative effect of these drugs was reduced when compared with a control group or a single dose of cannabichromene.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger, PharmD, BCPS
Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the simple version: this combination pill already has two ingredients that can make you drowsy, the codeine (an opioid pain reliever) and the methocarbamol (a muscle relaxer). CBC may add to that calming, sleepy effect. So stacking them together could mean more drowsiness, dizziness, slowed breathing, or trouble concentrating than you'd expect from the medication alone.

I want to be straight with you about the evidence, though. This concern comes only from animal studies, not people, and the results were even a bit mixed. We don't have solid human data here. Still, because both work on the nervous system, it's worth a quick chat with your pharmacist or doctor before combining them, especially before driving or if you're older.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Aspirin, Codeine Phosphate, Methocarbamol page

“Alcohol is the single riskiest thing to combine with Robaxisal C (aspirin, codeine phosphate, and methocarbamol). Beer and wine both carry major ratings backed by solid human evidence, because codeine and methocarbamol already slow breathing and reflexes, and alcohol deepens that sedation.”

Cannabichromene (CBC) is a non-intoxicating cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that is being studied for possible pain, anti-inflammatory, and nervous-system effects.
