Does marijuana help with AIDS

Answer 1

AIDS is a condition that you get from the HIV virus. The virus can only be transmitted through sexual intercourse and sharing needles, basically. It is not possible to get it by sharing a cigarette.

Answer 2

No you can not, remember hiv is contracted from Vaginal fluids, Seaman, Breast Milk, and Blood.

YES you can but it is very rare. HIV can be transmitted through saliva. Conditions such as bleeding gums and poor oral health increase the risk of transmission through saliva, however you cannot get HIV from casual kissing i.e. on the cheek or a peck on the lips.

Answer 3

Answer

Marijuana (THC) has evidence it can help with some of the symptoms of AIDS but it will not treat or cure HIV/AIDS.

There is a medication called Marinol (dronabinol), a synthetic version of delta-9-THC, that is FDA approved to treat appetite loss associated with weight loss in people with AIDS. It is also approved to treat nausea and vomiting associated with cancer chemotherapy in patients who have failed to respond adequately to conventional treatments.

Actual marijuana (that is smoked, for example) has been shown to help with increasing

appetite in people with AIDS however there are actually not a lot of quality studies to see if marijuana is helpful for reducing symptoms of AIDS or other medical problems.

In The United States Marinol is a schedule III controlled substance under federal law, marijuana is a schedule I controlled substance (the same level as LSD, PCP, and heroin).

Answer 4

There is no known universal cure for HIV. Unfortunately, marijuana can not cure HIV, nor can it cure any other diseases. Marijuana has been approved medically to help with the nausea that some diseases can bring.

Answer 5

Only if the joint or blunt has HIV positive blood, semen, breast milk, or vaginal secretion on it and you have a break in your skin on your lips.
