Medical Marijuana – More than Just a Medicine

Earlier, medical marijuana (MMJ) is among those drugs whose use is illegal as it was only used for wrong purposes mostly by drug addicts. However, during the last few years the research carried on this topic has proved that it can also be used for the treatment of many debilitating diseases and incurable diseases such as cancer. The health benefits that it offers has forced governments of many US states to legalize its use with a few terms and conditions. MMJ refers to the use of cannabis plant for medicinal purposes. The component called tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) found in cannabis is the one that is used as a medicine.

Not everybody is allowed to take MMJ treatment and one needs a written permission from his/her physician. You physician will give you permission only if he/she feels that you are not getting any relief from his/her treatment. Not everybody is allowed to provide MMJ treatment and you need to do a good research to find a San Francisco medical center or one in your area. To open a clinic, one needs a license, which is not easy to obtain. Before selecting any clinic or dispensary for taking MMJ treatment, try to figure out whether it has a valid license or not? Next, you need to do search for reviews of people, which had earlier taken treatment from there.

A written permission is not only sufficient to take this treatment as the doctors at the dispensary will confirm whether the permission is genuine and it is confirmed, you need to undergo a series of tests.  If it is found in the reports that you need marijuana, then the doctor at the dispensary will tell you about dosage.
