CBD oil and tamoxifen

Ampmusic14

Just wondering if anyone else out there has taken CBD oil while on tamoxifen? I feel like there isn't much information out there as to whether or not cbd oil interferes with the effects of tamoxifen. Only thing I could find is to take it in small doses. No more than 60-75mg daily. I'd much rather take cbd oil for anxiety and sleep verses another prescribed medication... Hoping some of you have some thoughts on this.

Hmmm, I am not sure if there have been (though I could be wrong!) many research based studies on CBD and Tamoxifen. I use CBD with THC and I take Aromasin. My mo knows about this and has no objection to it ( they were the ones who guided me toward a medical cannabis card many years ago). What does your mo say?

I'm being put on Letrozole and my MO is fine with me taking a CBD FECO.

I'm pretty sure I told my doctor I was taking it but I really can't remember for sure (chemo and tamoxifen brain) and I don't think he had any issues with it but I was taking it at night at the same time as my tamoxifen right before bed. So, now I try to space it out 2-3 hours since both are metabolized through the liver. I have been taking thc free organic cbd oil. I don't see oncology again until May. I have ativan for the days that I have really bad anxiety but it makes me feel really sleepy the next day.

Ampmusic,

If you are using it to help you sleep, have you tried a formula with a bit of THC in it? The two work very synergistically. If you live in a legal state most dispensaries will carry products with small amounts of THC with CBD. 18:1 (CBD:THC) for instance. This will not make you feel high but the bit of THC enhances the CBD effect

Yes I'm using it to help me sleep and for anxiety. The ones I have have less than 0.3%thc in it. Due to my profession, I cannot have thc.
