What Are the Negative Side Effects of Medicinal Marijuana?

Question by lunchboxoctober: What are the negative side effects of medicinal marijuana?
Recently a relative of mine was prescribed medicinal marijuana to treat her in a long list of medical conditions, and besides being “stoned”, isn’t different from her normal self, but is there anything i should be looking out for down the road?

Please no “drugs are bad, mmkay” replies.

Other than it is not legal in almost every state, nothing. The ‘war on drugs’ hype would want you to believe it is a gateway drug, but it isn’t. The pot will help alleviate the stress that comes with pain and it will also help stimulate an appetite for those who need to keep weight on. She should count herself lucky as living in a place that allows her to have medical mj. I wouldn’t worry too much 🙂
