Hi,

It is not safe to smoke marijuana while on Eptoin. Smoking marijuana while taking Eptoin may cause dizziness, drowsiness, confusion, difficulty concentrating, impaired thinking, judgment, and motor incoordination.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
