Medical Marijuana Is the Cart Before the Horse?

a symptom of multiple sclerosis characterized by tightness and
involuntary muscle movement. The analysis found that compared to a
placebo, cannabinoids were associated with greater improvement in
spasticity symptoms. However, the results were not statistically
significant, meaning they could be due to chance.

purpose should research reliable information and see their primary care
doctor.
