We all know the inconvenience and discomfort an upset stomach can bring, but some patients suffer from severe nausea that gets in the way of living a quality life. Nausea can be from an underlying condition, such as anxiety disorders, Crohn’s disease, Post Traumatic Stress Disorders, and many more. Regardless of the cause, the nausea can make it difficult to deal with other symptoms. Medical marijuana offers a calming of the stomach when it comes to severe nausea, offering patients a sense of relief.
Treating Severe Nausea with Medical Marijuana
Sometimes the medications we need to treat specific diseases create new symptoms of their own. Treating conditions such as cancer, lupus, HIV, and Hepatitis C often come with a side effect of nausea. The effects of treating nausea with medical marijuana has been studied for decades, showing nothing but positive results.
In a 1975 study, it was found that all 20 patients in the study showed relief from nausea when ingesting certain types of THC. Research has shown conclusively that medical marijuana works as an antiemetic, meaning it is effective against vomiting and nausea. The greatest strength marijuana brings is the versatility. With nausea often comes other symptoms, and rather than taking an assortment of pills for each side effect, medical marijuana offers a relief against all. Common symptoms, other than nausea, marijuana can assist with indlude:
- Chronic Pain
- Reduced Appetite
- Anxiety
- Fatigue
