Background: Pharmacogenomics (PGx) can provide more precision in determining causation of adverse drug reactions (ADRs) from drug-drug-gene interaction clinical application. Case Summary: Patient was an intermediate CYP2C19 metabolizer on stable therapy taking a low but therapeutic dose of sertraline for depression and anxiety over a period of 20 years. The patient then became hyponatremic and cognitively impaired after addition of cannabidiol (CBD) to this sertraline regimen. The proposed mechanism was drug-drug-gene interaction of CBD further inhibiting the CYP2C19 metabolism of sertraline and increasing drug exposure to produce moderate to severe hyponatremia and subsequent cognitive dysfunction. Practice Implications: Pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing may assist in etiology of patient symptoms from adverse drug reactions (ADRs) or drug-drug interactions by combining these with detection and application of drug-gene interactions. This case shows inhibition of CYP2C19 by CBD to further increase sertraline exposure, producing hyponatremia and subsequent cognitive dysfunction through CYP2C19 phenoconversion by CBD.
