At this time the Maryland Medical Cannabis Commission has identified qualifying conditions for medical card in Maryland.
These conditions have been selected based on evidence that medical cannabis can be beneficial in providing relief to patients in pain and suffering.
Anorexia
Anorexia is an eating disorder that causes a severe lack of appetite and nausea. Cannabis has been studied as a tool in increasing appetite in these patients to stimulate enjoyment of food as well as a tool to elevate mood and reduce nausea.
Chronic Pain
There are many medical conditions that result in severe chronic pain such as cancer, and scoliosis.
Cannabis has been found to aid in pain relief especially with neuropathic pain.
Seizures
Medical marijuana has been found to target the receptors in the body that may cause seizures and so patients with seizure conditions such as epilepsy often qualify for a medical card in Maryland.
Muscle Spasms
While muscle spasms occur during a seizure there are other conditions when they may impact a patient such as those with spinal cord injuries or other conditions that impact the nervous system.
Because of this, medical cannabis has been used as a tool to decrease the potential for muscle spasms.
