Most combinations of drugs with cannabis are not a problem. However caution should be taken when combining cannabis and drugs that act on the CNS. Adverse effects can range from tachi-cardia, vomiting to confusion and hallucinations. Potentially fatal increases in blood plasma concerntrations some antidepressant metabolities have also been noted when cannabis has been smoked by the patient on the CNS drugs. Only recently 16 year old boy was found dead. Originally it was thought he had taken an overdose of his prescribed medication. However it was later noted that he did not own enough of this particular AD to have caused his death. It was later found that he had been smoking cannabis and this caused a fatal build up the AD metabolites in his blood. I kid you not.
