Talk with a qualified professional
Always ask a physician or other qualified health professional about any medical condition, medicine or treatment, including medical cannabis. Do not ignore professional advice or delay seeking care because of something you read on this site.
Medical cannabis is not right for everyone
- Cannabis can interact with other medicines, including blood thinners, sedatives and some antidepressants.
- It may not be safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or for people with certain heart, lung or mental health conditions.
- Effects vary widely from person to person. Edibles can take a long time to take effect, so start with a low dose and wait before taking more.
Emergencies
If you have a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you think you or someone else has taken too much cannabis, contact Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222.
Legal information
Laws differ by state and change often. Cannabis remains illegal under federal law. Information about laws on this site is not legal advice, so check your state program's official rules or speak with a lawyer.
Evaluations
When you book an evaluation, an independent physician licensed in your state makes their own medical decision. Approval is never promised.
