Marijuana and its medical use have been highly debated
recently. Critics view it as a drug that
should be outlawed. Supporters view the
drug as a way to treat physical/mental challenges.
The US Government and Accountability Office states that
medical marijuana can be used to treat several conditions. These conditions include: Alzheimer’s disease, epilepsy,
and multiple sclerosis (MS). It can also
be used to treat steady pain, vomiting, and depression.
Critics of medical marijuana don’t agree with these findings. They say not enough evidence has been documented to support these claims. They also
state there has been less evidence showing that marijuana assists people with MS
except for dealing with pain management associated with the condition.
Countries such as Canada, Austria, and the Netherlands have
allowed marijuana for prescription drug usage.
Only people in areas where medical marijuana is legal are allowed to use
the drug for this purpose. Federal
government prohibits the use of medical marijuana currently.
