Hi,

You may have an attack of bronchospasm or panic attack due to the drug.

Also, smoking Marijuana gives you a sore throat it may be one reason.

Use water gargling and water vapour inhalation thrice a day for five days.

Take bronchodilators in case of bronchospasm and anxiolytic medication if you experience panic attacks.

Please consult your physician immediately, he will examine for the cause and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
