A member asked:
Can i smoke marijuana after the first dose of the rabies vaccine; does it effect the vaccine's efficacy?

No effect on the vaccine. However, big effect on you. Smoking is smoking and because of that it is not good for your lungs. Also, regular marijuana at your age affects brain development and so best not to use. If you insist on using, better to use an edible product or an oil you can rub on.

Cannabinoids do not affect vaccine efficacy, and there is no known interaction.
