Hemp and Amlodipine, Celecoxib

These two interact in 2 distinct ways. Each one is explained separately below.

Why Are There 2 Interactions?

Hemp interacts with whole categories of medication. Amlodipine, Celecoxib falls into 2 of those categories, so it can interact with Hemp in 2 different ways. We’ve listed each one below — your overall risk is driven by the most serious of them (Minor).

Minor

ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS

1 of 2

Why this applies to Amlodipine, Celecoxib

Amlodipine, Celecoxib falls under ANTIHYPERTENSIVE DRUGS — the group Hemp interacts with.

Theoretically, hemp seed protein may have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
In a hypertensive animal model, hemp seed protein hydrolysate reduced systolic blood pressure by a mechanism possibly involving the inhibition of renin and angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activities. However, there was no effect of hemp seed protein on blood pressure in normotensive animals. Furthermore, hempseed oil consumption does not seem to reduce blood pressure in humans.
Severity Minor Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Interaction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans..

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

You're asking about Consensi, which pairs amlodipine (a blood pressure medicine) with celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory for pain). The concern here is only with the amlodipine side. The idea is that hemp seed protein might gently lower blood pressure too, so in theory it could add to amlodipine's effect and leave your pressure a little lower than expected. That could show up as dizziness, lightheadedness, or feeling washed out, especially when standing up.

Honestly though, this is very weak. The blood pressure effect was only seen in animals bred to be hypertensive, and hemp oil didn't lower pressure in people. Everyday hemp seeds or oil in food almost certainly won't matter. If you use concentrated hemp products, just mention it to your pharmacist or doctor.

CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES

2 of 2

Amlodipine, Celecoxib also falls under CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES.

Theoretically, hemp might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research shows that hemp induces CYP3A4 enzymes.
Severity Minor 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

Consensi combines amlodipine (a blood pressure medicine) and celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory pain reliever). Both are handled by a liver enzyme called CYP3A4. In a lab dish, hemp appeared to speed that enzyme up, which in theory could clear these drugs a little faster and make them work slightly less well. For amlodipine, that might mean blood pressure not being controlled as tightly; for celecoxib, possibly a bit less pain or inflammation relief.

Honestly, this is a theoretical, lab-only finding rated as minor, so eating hemp seeds or hemp oil as food is very unlikely to cause a real problem. If you plan to take concentrated hemp supplements daily, just mention it to your pharmacist or doctor first.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Amlodipine, Celecoxib page

“Grapefruit is the risk I would want a Consensi patient to grasp first. Consensi pairs amlodipine and celecoxib to treat high blood pressure and arthritis pain, and grapefruit blocks the enzyme that clears amlodipine, raising its levels.”

About Hemp

What is Hemp?

Hemp
  • Plant-based protein source
  • Heart health support
  • Skin and hair health
  • Reducing inflammation
  • General nutrition (omega fatty acids)

Hemp seeds and hemp seed oil are nutritious foods rich in protein, fiber, and healthy omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, and they are generally safe for most people as part of the diet. While the nutrition is real, strong human evidence that hemp supplements treat specific medical conditions is limited. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using hemp products for a health concern, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
