I work in a hospital and we use the drug "Marinol" all the time. As I understant it, it is a synthetic form of THC. We use it to increase appetites, in select patients. I'm not sure of its effectiveness compared to the real thing, but I have read that it is less effective.
No accepted medical...
I suffer from "asthmatic bronchitis" due to allerges. Steroids do help, but I'm worried about the long term effects. I'm a RN, don't smoke but I'm seriously thinking of trying some MJ as a last resort. I'll post my experience.
