Is it safe to take CBD along with antihypertensive medications?

Published August 5, 2017

"I’m taking 8mg daily of Candesartan and it has lowered my blood pressure. Is it safe to take CBD along with it?"

Yes, I’ve never seen any problem but recheck you BP after a few weeks to see if you need to continue on the same dose because CBD can correct for HBP. If you want to check for yourself look at Drug interaction checker: https://reference.medscape.com/drug-interactionchecker
