Does Vermox Interact With Marijuana?
Question: I have been told I need worm medication, either Vermox or Combantrin but I'm worried about taking it while I've got Marijuana in my system. Would it be all right?
Brief Answer:
Vermox is safe to take
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for asking HCM
I have gone through your query. Vermox (mebendazole) is safe to take and there is no known drug interaction with marijuana for this. Using albendazole is more easier than mebendazole which is very effective in a single dose of 400 mg alone.
So you can take mebendazole (vermox) or albendazole.
Let me know if anything not clear.
I am happy to help you.
Thanks.

Thank you for your follow up.
A beer 4 hours before won't be a problem. But avoid taking beer or alcohol again today and tomorrow. There are no major interactions but if taken alcohol with vermox there will be dizziness.
