MEDICINAL CANNABIS WARNING / DISCLAIMER

There is no pharmacological free lunch in cannabis or any drug. Negative reactions can result. A small percentage of people have negative or allergic reactions to marijuana. Heart patients could have problems, even though cannabis generally relieves stress, dilates the arteries, and in general lowers the diastolic pressure. A small percentage of people get especially high heart rates and anxieties with cannabis. These persons should not use it. Some bronchial asthma sufferers benefit from cannabis; however, for others it may serve as an additional irritant.

  2. Epilepsy - Tonic Clonic / Grand Mal

    Great to have discovered this forum. I must say swim a while ago surprised me that there is not only no medical trials for adults but all the legislation and push for legalisation of medial cannabis is surrounding children. Yes I am a first time poster. I just am at a loss as to why this is the case when its proven to have an affect on controlling even the worst forms in adults just with smoking (youtube videos prove this). Why all the emphasis on kids? Is it a hearts and minds approach first to get legalisation through faster? I live in SA and do no even know a single person who can get their hands on any outdoors otherwise I would be making oils for them to try rath…

  12. Stumbling blocks in the path to using medical cannabis

    My introduction in brief: I have been cannoned into the marijuana debate by the abject failure of modern medicine to meet the needs of a couple of elderly relatives. I can see how the legislation allowing limited access to medical marijuana is a sham, purporting to do one thing while at the same time building in restrictions that as near as anything make sure nothing changes. I don't know who initiated the push for a more liberal legislation, but the result must be disappointing. Perhaps single-purpose legislation to do just one thing: legalise the import and sale of low THC content cannabis extract should have been the goal. Just imagine the advan…

  13. this idea of holding cannabis oil under the tongue for 2 minutes

    I see it recommended that patients taking medicinal cannabis extract should try to hold it under the tongue for a minute or two. I'm wondering why. Cannabis extract is oil soluble, so what is it going to do under the tongue? Capsules of cannabis extract are also available, and these presumably are not going to be held under the tongue. Do capsules in fact offer anything advantageous? With the product being taken for its medicinal effects, you might wonder why patients would take it in a manner that fails to some extent to capitalise on all that it has to offer, if there actually is a benefit to holding the dose under the tongue. Anyone know more about this?
