Why Are People Increasingly Choosing Medical Cannabis and Showing Interest? Where is the evidence?

1. Why Are People Increasingly Choosing Medical Cannabis and Showing Interest? Where is the evidence? Cannabis for a long time has had a negative status that has even prompted it to becoming banned in numerous nations. The cannabis plant was considered just a recreational substance and not many people cared about the therapeutic properties. As of late however, cannabis laws and attitude in different regions has improved drastically. To discuss this, you can even get in touch with a cannabis doctor knowledgeable about CBD and cannabis products. What you need to know however is that there is currently limited evidence about the effectiveness of medicinal cannabis for use in different medical conditions. 1. Medicinal cannabis and epilepsy in paediatric and adult patient There is some evidence to support using medicinal cannabis in the treatment of certain childhood epilepsies. 2. Medicinal cannabis and multiple sclerosis (MS) There is some low to moderate evidence to suggest that medicinal cannabis products may be effective for treating the pain symptoms of MS. 3. Treating chronic non-cancer pain There is some evidence that cannabinoids can reduce pain in both MS-related neuropathic pain and non-MS-related neuropathic pain, but for many people the reduction in pain may be modest. There is, however, insufficient information to make a conclusion about cannabinoids for the treatment of pain associated with arthritis and fibromyalgia. 4. Preventing and managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting in cancer (CINV)

2. There are some reports that medicinal cannabis products (in particular THC and related substances) relieved the symptoms of CINV. However, the number of studies is small and the quality of published evidence is low to moderate. 5. Medicinal cannabis use in palliative care There is no evidence at this time that medicinal cannabis has any anti-cancer activity or that it can slow the progression of these conditions. So, what does all this mean? It means that we need more clinical studies to be completed and that is what is exciting about the field currently. We are all learning together, and time will tell how successful medicinal cannabis treatments are. At our clinic we would be happy to explore these things with you. We will happily share what we have learning so far! If you want to meet great medical cannabis doctors, then look no further and contact cannadoc.com.au today to book in an appointment.
