Cannabidiol found in marijuanaDrug abuse has anticonvulsant effects while tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has been shown to both provoke and suppress seizures. MarijuanaDrug abuse can also cause the mouth to feel dry, increase heart rate, redden eyes, and impair judgment. This is also illegal in some places and may interact with other medications as well which may do more harm.
I have grown up around mj my whole life. I was taught by my parents about moderation. Though I've only indulged a few times in the last 10 years, I was going through a really rough patch, emotionally and chronic pain, last year and my mother gave me a small amount and just a little helped. If you experience seizures like I do, alcohol is your biggest no, no. Not only does it make your med null and void, it sleep deprives you and you will have seizures. If you can get medicinal quality mj instead of street mj it is safer and better and you only need one hit.
Hi,
Although the components are said to have anticonvulsant effect, there are not enough studies done to prove this. I am not saying that patients with seizure will benefit from it. Rather, I do not encourage its use. Aside from being illegal, it has side effects which can do more harm than good. It is best that you have regular consult with your doctor. Take care and best regards
