Cannabinoid therapy is the rising star of pain relief, nausea control, and neurological care.
But here’s a fun fact – if your liver is running on low power (thanks to cirrhosis, hepatitis, or other party-crashers), your cannabinoid dose might need a remix!
Your liver is the backstage crew for metabolizing THC and CBD, mainly using the cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme system. When the crew is short-staffed, metabolism slows down, making cannabinoids hang around longer and hit harder. Translation?
A standard dose might feel like a double shot, bringing on extra sedation, dizziness, and a potential brain fog party.
To keep things smooth, healthcare pros should consider starting low, spacing out doses, and keeping a close watch. Customising therapy ensures patients get the relief they need without unwanted plot twists.
Moral of the story?
Before diving into cannabinoid therapy, chat with a healthcare professional – your liver will thank you!
