Cannabis and Cablivi

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

Moderate

ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS

Why this applies to Cablivi

Cablivi falls under ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS — the group Cannabis interacts with.

Theoretically, cannabis might increase the risk of bleeding when used concomitantly with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research shows that the cannabis constituents delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) inhibit platelet aggregation.
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 thing to keep in mind with Cablivi (caplacizumab). It already works as an antithrombotic agent, meaning it makes your blood less likely to clot, and bleeding is one of its most common and well-known side effects. Cannabis comes into the picture because lab studies suggest THC and CBD may make platelets a little less sticky, so the worry is that adding cannabis on top of Cablivi could nudge your bleeding risk a bit higher.

I'll be honest, this concern is theoretical and based only on test-tube research, not real patient outcomes. Still, since people on Cablivi are already being treated for a serious blood and clotting disorder, it's worth raising. Watch for things like easy bruising, nosebleeds, bleeding gums, or blood that's slow to stop, and please loop in your doctor or pharmacist before combining the two.

About Cannabis

What is Cannabis?

Cannabis
  • Chronic pain
  • Nausea and vomiting from chemotherapy
  • Muscle spasticity (e.g., multiple sclerosis)
  • Anxiety and stress
  • Sleep problems
  • Appetite stimulation

Cannabis contains many active compounds, mainly THC (which causes a 'high') and CBD (which does not). Some uses, such as chemotherapy-related nausea, certain seizure disorders, and muscle spasticity, have meaningful evidence, while many other popular uses are not well proven. It can cause real side effects and impairment, so talk to your doctor or pharmacist and follow your local laws before using it.
