Ticagrelor

For an informed discussion with your doctor or pharmacist. This information collection is not a clinically validated interaction checker. Missing data do not establish safety. Do not change or stop prescribed medicines on the basis of this information. The findings apply to the specific conditions studied; laboratory and animal studies cannot be directly extrapolated to humans.

Active substance: Ticagrelor

Examples of brand names: Brilique [EU/DE]

ATC code: B01AC24

Main use (for orientation): Platelet inhibition

Documented research summary

Ticagrelor is itself active, not an activation-dependent prodrug. Cannabinoid-related concentration changes remain an unquantified hypothesis here.

Uncertainties and limitations

No reliable prediction for CBD, THC or rare cannabinoids.

Research is limited to the specified date and protocol; it is not globally exhaustive. Brand names and authorisations do not constitute a complete current market overview.

Structured assessment

Category: Theoretical context

Cannabinoid scope: 28 register names in the documented search family; neither 28 individual clinical trials nor a blanket assessment of all cannabinoids.

Evidence status: Theoretical plausibility; no verified clinical pair effect

Mechanism / drug context: Ticagrelor and an active metabolite; CYP3A and transporters.

Type of supporting material: Medicine information and documented individual review; no positive pair trial

Clinical interpretation: Requires individual assessment by a doctor or pharmacist. Lack of evidence does not establish safety; no dosage or discontinuation advice is provided.

Context: Ticagrelor is an active reversible P2Y12 inhibitor, not a prodrug; additional active metabolite AR-C124910XX.

Drug context and gaps in search results are not measured interactions. The source role below describes which statement the source actually supports.

Source role [CA_L_D0010]: Drug context

Statement supported: Supports dosage form, metabolism and/or known risks; alone, it does not substantiate a cannabinoid–drug pair finding.

Source: BRILINTA (TICAGRELOR) TABLET [ASTRAZENECA PHARMACEUTICALS LP] [CA_L_D0010]

Scope of review: Individual research with documented title/abstract screening and targeted review of original sections. This is not exhaustive evidence that interactions are absent.

Unresolved source question: The complete stored individual review, label review, literature screening, conclusion and uncertainties were read. Targeted sections of original information were rechecked; no claim is made that all product information or full texts were completely revalidated.

Separately recorded findings

No separately substantiated finding for this drug–cannabinoid pair is recorded within the documented scope of review. This does not prove that no such study exists anywhere or that the combination is safe.
