Risks/benefits: All meds/supplements/recreational drugs should only be used with clear goals, such as treating a condition or a symptom and discontinued as soon as possible. Marijuana may be helpful for symptom management in very limited circumstances, but is also involved in a cyclic nausea-vomiting syndrome and amotivational states in teenagers. Talk to your GP about use in your case.
