Using cannabis (weed) can potentially affect how your body processes medications. Both diethylcarbamazine (the active ingredient in Banocide Forte) and terbinafine are broken down by your liver. Cannabis can compete for these same liver pathways, which might occasionally alter the effectiveness of your medicines or increase the risk of side effects like liver strain or dizziness. To ensure your treatments work as safely and effectively as possible, it is best to avoid cannabis during your course.
