Hemp and Ibrexafungerp Citrate

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

Minor

CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES

Why this applies to Ibrexafungerp Citrate

Ibrexafungerp Citrate falls under CYTOCHROME P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) SUBSTRATES — the group Hemp interacts with.

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

Here's the gist with hemp and Brexafemme (ibrexafungerp). Your body clears this antifungal using a liver enzyme called CYP3A4. Some early lab research suggests hemp might speed that enzyme up a bit. If that happened in real life, your body could clear the medicine a little faster, leaving slightly less of it to do its job fighting the yeast infection. In theory, that could mean the treatment works less well.

I want to be honest about how thin this evidence is. It comes only from test-tube and lab studies, not from people, and it's rated a minor, possible interaction. Eating hemp seeds or a little hemp oil in food is very unlikely to matter. If you're using concentrated hemp supplements, just mention it to your pharmacist or doctor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Ibrexafungerp Citrate page

“Ibrexafungerp (Brexafemme) treats vaginal yeast infections, often in a single day of pills, and even that short course can be thrown off by the wrong supplement, so this list warrants real care. Three of the 138 ingredients on file rate major, and they pull in opposite directions.”

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.
