A patient suffering from HIV/AIDS experiences frequent vomiting, nausea, loss of appetite and weight loss. Medical marijuana has proved effective in relieving all these problems, to a great extent. According to some recent studies on AIDS, mind-blowing benefits of marijuana for HIV/AIDS have been seen. HIV/AIDS gives birth to neuropathic pain and weight loss, which is eliminated with the inhalation of cannabis or consumption of medical marijuana. The patient restores weight again and essential nutrients are maintained in the body with the help of medical marijuana.


Marijuana for HIV/AIDSA capsule named Marinol was prescribed to HIV patients as a supplement to smoking medical marijuana. But patients get more relief from inhaling cannabis as it contains cannabinoids and terpenoids which Marinol sometimes lacks. It is suggested to smoke medical marijuana instead of Marinol. Although, Marinol does stimulate the side effects in some patients. Medical marijuana or cannabis enhances the appetite of a person and you need only two to three puffs to feel the effects. Inhaled cannabis gives faster relief to patients as compared to Marinol. It works within minutes and you just don’t need to wait to enjoy its soothing effect.

A study was conducted at the University of California by Prof. Ronald J. Ellis, which showed that patients who consumed medical marijuana have had 30 percent less pain than those having pills. There have been many debates on the benefits of medical marijuana and scientists have approved this drug as a life saving plant.
