Detailed Answer:
Hello and Welcome

I appreciate your concern

Cannabis is used as an analgesic, anti emetic and appetite stimulant. It is also used in glaucoma and wasting syndrome associated with HIV.

It is used as analgesic of last / alternative resort in malignancies where other drugs fail.

It does not cure any cancer. No authentic clinical trial has shown this to be a fact to date.

Wishing you best of health

Thanks
