Can you take antidepressant med while smoking weeds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it's possible : Marijuana has been reported to help depression and also to cause it. It may not interfere with the antidepressant, but we don't know it's effect together. Depression is not an approved indication for marihuana, and therefore it is commonly illegal.
