Medical Marijuana

Read a random definition: constitutum debiti proprii

A quick definition of Medical Marijuana:

Medical Marijuana: Marijuana that is used for its medicinal purposes. People take it to help with pain, nausea, and to increase their appetite. In some places, like California, people can buy it if they have a recommendation from a doctor. The Supreme Court has said that even if a state says it's okay to use medical marijuana, the federal government can still say it's not allowed because it affects things that happen between different states.

A more thorough explanation:

Medical marijuana refers to the use of marijuana for its medicinal properties. Patients take medical marijuana to relieve pain, nausea, and increase appetite. In California, patients can purchase medical cannabis with a valid recommendation from a physician.

For example, a cancer patient undergoing chemotherapy may use medical marijuana to alleviate nausea and increase their appetite. Another example is a patient with chronic pain who uses medical marijuana to manage their symptoms.

However, the legality of medical marijuana is still a controversial issue. In the case of Gonzales v. Raich, the Supreme Court ruled that Congress has the power to regulate the growth and use of marijuana, even if it conflicts with state law, as it can affect interstate commerce.
