Is medical marajuina good for asthma my sister have arterial pulmonary hypertension & suffers from asthma. she is on oxygen much of the time. could marajuina help her?

In : In short, the answer is no.We do know that it may have adverse effects on people with lung issues. This should be discussed with the pulmonary doctor taking care of her.

This : This is a very controversial issue. A small study which was published in 1975 showed reduced bronchial spasms in people who were exercising, when compared with placebo. Cannabis can act as a cough suppressant. The problem is that many people have adverse reactions to cannabis. There have been a number of animal studies. More human study needs to be done to see if the short term benefits of cannabis outweigh the long term risks. I am not aware of any states that list asthma as an indication for medical marijuana.

Marijuana: I am not aware of any randomized, prospective study that demonstrates the benefit of marijuana for pulmonary hypertension. Indeed, i suspect it may worsen the situation for anyone on oxygen.
