What are the benefits and side effects of using marijuana for treatment and recreation?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

You have very specific and technical queries on marijuana. I will try my best to answer you.

1. Marijuana has two main chemicals THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). In healthy individuals, it causes changes in brain activity as a state of euphoria.

2. In diseased individuals, it has been used in pain, nausea, and loss of appetite, but in homeopathy, it has been used in different ways. As homeopathy has two preparation of it namely, Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa. Cannabis indica is mainly used for altered mental functions like forgetfulness, deliriousness, euphoria, and loquacity (being talkative), while Cannabis sativa is used for the acute inflammatory stage of gonorrhea.

3. Recreational use of drugs may cause altered perception, delusions, hallucinations, and distortion of time and space.

4. No, one cannot overdose on marijuana.

5. Yes, homeopathy has very little research paper on the use of marijuana.

6. There is no difference in treatment by marijuana from other homeopathic medicines. Most homeopathic medicines are toxic in a crude state, and their harmful effects are minimized by potentisation.

7. Cannabis plant is illegal in most countries, so it is difficult to do research unless they are authorized by the governing body. Controversy also arises due to its effect. The effect of marijuana is confounded with the effects of tobacco, as most addicts use both at the same time. It becomes difficult to distinguish between the primary symptoms.

8. Effects of cannabis smoking on the lungs cause bronchodilation, and long-term uses can cause COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).

9. The effect of Cannabis on the brain is already described.

Hope the information provided with regard to your question may be helpful.

Thanks and regards.
