To ease the proliferation of medical marijuana as a safe and indispensable treatment option, here are some important pointers we at Bernard Cannabis Center consider essential:

• Know the Basics

  Cannabis is the World Health Organization’s (WHO) preferred designation of the plant Cannabis sativa. Its primary pharmacological effects come from the chemical, delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Levels of THC in medical marijuana have shifted. Because of increased levels of this psychoactive ingredient, potency in marijuana today has spiked.

• Weigh its Costs and Benefits

  Compounds in medical marijuana have its advantages and disadvantages. Studies have revealed that THC can help relieve pain and nausea, function as an antioxidant and reduce inflammation. However, users of Cannabis or medical marijuana can also experience negative reactions such as anxiety and panic attacks. It can also trigger psychotic episodes for people with a family history of mental illnesses. Gathering from this, it is imperative not to self-medicate using medical marijuana.

• Understand State Laws

Only a specific list of medical conditions is made eligible for medical marijuana treatment in some states.
