Drug & supplement interaction

Hemp + Lanreotide

Lanreotide brand name: Somatuline.

No Known Interaction
Medically reviewed by · Updated July 2026 · Pair last verified Sep 20, 2026
The bottom line No known interaction

We found no known interaction between Hemp and Lanreotide in our sources. Absence of a documented interaction is not the same as proven safety, and does not guarantee one does not exist. Do not start, stop, or change a medication or supplement based on this page; confirm with your pharmacist or doctor first. Additionally, although there is no interaction, the two are separately associated with some of the same side effects, which would make a new symptom harder to attribute to one or the other.

Interaction report

Hemp and Lanreotide

We checked these two against our interaction database. Here is what we found.

No Known Interaction Found

We did not find a documented interaction between Lanreotide and Hemp in our sources. This does not guarantee that the combination is completely free of risk — there is often limited research on supplements and herbal products, especially around drug interactions.

If you decide to take both, the practical routine is simple: add one new thing at a time and note the date you started it. If the combination is going to disagree with you, it usually shows in the first days to a couple of weeks — and a start date turns “I’ve been feeling off” into something a pharmacist can actually work with. Do not stop a prescribed medicine on your own.

Always talk with your pharmacist or doctor before making changes to your medications or supplements, particularly if you take several medications or have an ongoing health condition.

Hemp safety at a glance

Hemp overall Use caution Hemp seed foods are generally well tolerated, but concentrated extracts and supplements are less studied.
Pregnancy Use caution Hemp seed foods are likely fine in normal amounts, but concentrated extracts should be avoided due to limited safety data.
Breastfeeding Use caution Food amounts of hemp seed are likely okay, but supplements and extracts are not well studied, so caution is advised.

Safety guidance is general; always confirm with your pharmacist or doctor for your situation.

How we checked

Why No Interaction Is Listed for Lanreotide

Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes, not just single drug names. Lanreotide is filed under a single classification — cytochrome p450 3a4 (cyp3a4) inhibitors. Hemp has documented interactions with 6 drug classes — the most serious being estrogens (moderate), ace inhibitors (aceis) (minor) and anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs (minor) — and none of Lanreotide’s classifications are among them.

Classification data comes from our licensed Natural Medicines dataset. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded there, so this describes how the check was run — it is not a safety guarantee.

What to actually watch for

No Interaction Found — But Data Suggests Hemp and Lanreotide May Share Several of the Same Side Effects

This is not an interaction. Neither one changes how your body handles the other, and nothing here says they react together. What our sources do show is that each has separately been linked to the effects below — so taking both can make those effects more likely to turn up, and harder to pin on one or the other if they do. 2 of them are worth acting on rather than waiting out — marked below.

    “Orally, there are case reports of allergy to hemp seed, although this is uncommon. A 44-year-old male developed hives during a meal of hemp seed-crusted seafoods. Later, he developed facial swelling, shortness of breath, and problems speaking. Evaluation revealed allergy to a specific protein in hemp seed. He did not react to smoked cannabis.”

Overlapping uses

What Lanreotide Is Prescribed For, and What Hemp Has Been Studied For

These two come up together because they touch the same health topic — not because they do the same job. Lanreotide is a prescription medicine with approved uses on its FDA label. Hemp is a supplement: what follows is what researchers have looked at it for, and how strong that evidence is.

Lanreotide is prescribed for: Lanreotide Injection is used for the long-term treatment of acromegaly (a condition where the body produces too much growth hormone) in patients who have not responded adequately to surgery or radiation, or who cannot have those treatments. The goal is to bring growth hormone and IGF-1 levels back to normal. It is also used to treat adults with unresectable, well- or moderately-differentiated, locally advanced or metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) to help slow tumor progression, and to treat adults with carcinoid syndrome, where it reduces how often short-acting rescue medications are needed. If a patient is already receiving Lanreotide Injection for GEP-NETs, no additional dose is given for carcinoid syndrome.

Hemp has been studied for:

  • Joint pain studied, not established Hemp has been studied for this. Natural Medicines rates the evidence: Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate Read what the research shows

    Hemp for joint pain

    Although there is interest in using oral hemp for joint pain, there is insufficient reliable information about the clinical effects of oral hemp for this condition.

Effectiveness ratings and the research summaries above are the verbatim record from the Natural Medicines database, which grades evidence from “Effective” down to “Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate”. A rating below the top of that scale means researchers have looked at it — not that it works, and never that it can stand in for a prescribed medicine. Do not stop or replace Lanreotide on your own; if you are taking Hemp for the same health topic, tell your prescriber, especially if the medicine is being adjusted to a target.

Everything else you take

See Every Supplement That Interacts With Lanreotide

This page covers Hemp only. If you take other supplements — a multivitamin, a sleep aid, something for joints — the Lanreotide page lists 13 supplements it has a documented interaction with, worst first, each one explained.

The most serious there right now: Adrafinil (moderate), Cannabidiol (cbd) (moderate), Cannabinol (cbn) (moderate), Cannabis (moderate) and Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (thc) (moderate).

By severity: 12 moderate · 1 minor.

From our pharmacist’s overview on the Lanreotide page

“Every supplement on this page interacts with lanreotide (Somatuline) in the same basic way. Lanreotide, injected to treat acromegaly and certain neuroendocrine tumors, can slow CYP3A4, a liver enzyme that many herbal ingredients depend on to be cleared from the body.”

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.

Cannabis sativa · Cannabaceae · Seeds (hemp hearts), seed oil, protein powder, and sometimes leaves and extracts · Hemp seeds (hearts), hemp seed oil, hemp protein powder, capsules, and food products

An interaction check asks whether these two react with each other — it does not ask whether Hemp is a good idea for someone in your situation. Here is what our Hemp record says about it on its own.

Hemp: dosing

There is no official standard dose for hemp as a supplement. As a food, people often add a few tablespoons of hemp seeds, oil, or protein powder to meals and snacks.Because products vary widely in strength and form, the best approach is to follow the directions on the product label. They can help you decide whether it is a good fit and what amount may be reasonable for you.

Taking Hemp and Lanreotide Together: Common Questions

Is it safe to take Hemp with Lanreotide?
We do not list a known interaction between Hemp and Lanreotide. That does not guarantee the combination is risk-free, so confirm with your pharmacist or doctor — especially if you take other medications or have a health condition.
Do Hemp and Lanreotide have any of the same side effects?
Yes — our sources link each of them separately to 4 of the same effects. That is not an interaction: neither changes how your body handles the other. It does mean that if one of those effects turns up, it can be harder to tell which one is behind it. They are listed on this page with the source behind each.
Are Hemp and Lanreotide used for the same thing?
They overlap in purpose, which usually means the real question is whether you need both rather than whether they are safe together. This page lists the shared uses and how strong the evidence is for Hemp in each. That is a conversation for your prescriber, especially if Lanreotide is being adjusted to a target.
How was the Hemp and Lanreotide combination checked?
Interactions in our licensed database are recorded against drug classes. Lanreotide is filed under 1 classification, and Hemp has documented interactions with 6 drug classes — none of Lanreotide's classifications are among them. A medication can belong to classes beyond those recorded in our dataset, so this describes how the check was run rather than guaranteeing safety.
Does Hemp interact with any other medications?
Yes. Hemp has 938 documented drug interactions in our database — Lanreotide is simply not one of them. If you take anything else, it is worth checking each one; they are all listed on this page.
Does Lanreotide interact with any supplements?
Yes. Lanreotide has documented interactions with 13 supplements in our database — Hemp is not one of them. The Lanreotide interaction page linked on this page lists every one, ranked by severity.
