Cannabis

Medical marijuana is the whole plant of marijuana used for medical purposes. Marijuana is known by many names; the most common is cannabis. “Twenty-one percent of subjects had used cannabis in the past year with the majority of active users reporting beneficial effects on seizures. Twenty-four percent of all subjects believed marijuana was an effective therapy for epilepsy.

Cannabinoids are substances in cannabis that act on cells in the body (called cannabinoid receptors) to cause some effect. Two major ingredients include:

Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC, which causes the psychoactive effects of "getting high"

Cannabidiol, or CBD, which does not cause psychoactive effects but has shown some positive effects on certain body systems and may potentially affect seizures.
