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.

Other types of glaucoma include narrow-angle and secondary. Treatment of narrow-angle glaucoma is primarily surgical.

Medical Cannabis: The Patient's and the Doctor's Dilemmas* by Lester Grinspoon, M.D. *Editorial: Addiction Research, 2000, Vol. 8, No. 1, pp. 1-4 There is every reason to believe that the medical use of cannabis will continue to become more common in the United States and elsewhere. News of the many symptoms and syndromes for which it is an effective treatment is constantly spread by word-of-mouth, the Internet, and books and articles in lay journals. In increasing numbers, people are discovering that it is a remarkably non-toxic, inexpensive, and versatile medicine.
