A member asked:
Does using medical marijuana (its legal in my state) help hypertension, as edibles, not smoking it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Although there is evidence to show it does provide benefits to pain and suffering, most the evidence does not support any use for hypertension, smoking or edible. Hope that helped.
