What evidence exists that marijuana is effective in relieving nausea and vomiting?
GaleEncyofMedicine
YES!!! Marijuana has been scientifically proven to cure nausea. That is why it is prescribed by some states for chemotherapy patients; to cure there loss of appetite and their nausea. Don't believe any Propaganda about marijuana. It is one of the most useful "drugs"(I don't even like calling it that) in medicine and cures a variety of different symptoms. It can also be used for Post Traumatic Depression, Anxiety, Glaucoma, Asthma, and numerous others. Check up on your state laws and see if you can get a Medical Marijuana Card if you feel its necessary.

You can get anti-nausea medicines over the counter that you could try first, then see a doctor if not improved. These medicines are called anti-emetics. The pharmacist can help you find the best over the counter medicines for your particular symptoms.
An inhaled vaporizer method of marijuana use would be similarly bad for you, so neither should be done. If you are where marijuana use is legal, you might try sipping some weak tea made with the herb, however ginger is a better choice for a home remedy for nausea.
