Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is Marijuana Good For Dilated Cardiomyopathy Patient?
I was told by a physician that the only way marijuana can hurt the human body is if a brick of it feel out of a plane and landed on someone s head. Is that true for people w/ dialated cardiomyopathy? I have dilated cardiomyopathy and I was told marijuana could be good for me if eaten/vaporize instead of smoked? Is this true?
Hi. There is no concrete proof that marijuana helps patients with dil cardiomyopathy. Before any drug is authorised for use it should prove its merit which is not the case of marijuana for this indication you mentioned. The medical use of marijuana is gaining acceptance for a variety of other conditions. Hope this helps. Tale care.
