I like how your answer to everything is prescribing pharmaceutical drugs. Idiot. Typical medical doctor talking shit about cannabis while pushing the trillion dollar pharma industry. We don't want this trash here.

    Wasn't talking bad about marijuana. Just identifying a condition that's is clearly linked to chronic use in a small subset of patients. I agree that chronic use of Benzos would be a bad alternative. However in an emergency setting where you need to act, a temporary dose to put a patient out of misery is not a bad choice. If a kid or adult was having a seizure I would also acutely use this. I advise you to read the full article where I support much greater research into the plant. I am still in medical school and have no affiliation or benefit from any pharmaceutical company. My dream is to help as many patients as I can. I'm leaving for the hospital now to do just that.
