Cannabis to Treat Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s Disease
As many of us have realized, traditional treatments of ulcerative colitis, pancolitis, and Crohn’s disease are not effective for many patients. If you are not responding to traditional treatment or feel the medications you’re taking are doing more harm than good, you may want to consider using cannabis to treat your ulcerative colitis, pancolitis, or Crohn’s disease. Science has not yet demonstrated that cannabis is a cure. However, anecdotal evidence, the sheer number of patients with IBDs using marijuana, coupled with its low risk (besides legal in jurisdictions where it’s prohibited) and cost suggest that it’s worth trying if you haven’t responded to other treatments.
