  1. CAN MARIJUANA USE HELP YOU END SEIZURES?

  2. According to the Epilepsy Foundation, epilepsy and seizures affect around 3 million people of all age groups in the United States. It’s the 4th most common neurological condition.

  3. WHAT CAUSES SEIZURES? The causes of seizures are often unknown. Medical researchers say that there are many reasons for the development of seizures. These include brain infection, brain injury, tumor, abnormal blood sugar levels, drug abuse, and electric shock.

  4. MEDICATIONS FOR SEIZURES For treating seizures, the majority of the patients go for medications. The common medications are Phenytoin, Oxcarbazepine, Lamotrigine, Carbamazepine, Gabapentin, Valproic acid, Topiramate, and Phenobarbital.

  5. HOW MARIJUANA STOP SEIZURES? Cannabis for seizures works by interacting with the endocannabinoid system. The herb contains more than 100 cannabinoids, such as THC and CBD. Different cannabinoids contain different medicinal properties.

  6. CANNABIS REDUCES ANXIETY There’s some evidence that anxiety and stress can trigger seizures. Marijuana’s therapeutic properties can deliver anti-anxiety effects by boosting the serotonin levels in the brain. There has been a wide range of researches conducted on marijuana treatment for anxiety and depression.

  7. DOES CBD WORK? CBD is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, which can help stop seizure activity and improve overall health. On June 25, 2018, the FDA approved the first cannabidiol-based drug named Epidiolex for the treatment of seizures.

  8. CHECK WITH A PROFESSIONAL DOCTOR Before using cannabis oil or other forms for treating seizures, it’s necessary to talk to a professional doctor. Have an open discussion related to your condition and ask how cannabis or CBD could improve the quality of your life and impact the effectiveness of anti-seizure medications you are taking.

  9. CONCLUSION Anti-seizure medications can help improve symptoms, but they can cause certain side- effects. Marijuana is effective in reducing seizure activity naturally. Its cannabinoids are similar to certain neurotransmitters, which play a key role in regulating memory, mood, appetite, etc.
