Patients living with long-term gastrointestinal or autoimmune issues may find that conventional therapies don’t always bring relief. Cannabis-based treatments may be discussed in specific cases.

Crohn’s Disease

This chronic inflammatory bowel condition can cause pain, fatigue, and digestive issues. Where traditional treatment is insufficient, cannabis may be considered.

Colitis

Inflammation of the colon may result in abdominal pain and urgency. Patients with treatment-resistant symptoms may consult with a Mamedica specialist.

Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)

IBS causes cramping, bloating, and changes in bowel habits. Cannabis-based care may be considered for severe, treatment-resistant symptoms.

Chronic Nausea

Some individuals suffer from nausea unrelated to food intake. If standard anti-nausea medications are not effective, cannabis treatments may be explored.

Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting

Patients undergoing cancer treatment may explore medical cannabis to manage nausea if other medications have not worked.

ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder)

In some cases, cannabis-based treatments are considered when restrictive eating impacts health and standard therapies have failed.
