Marinol is reserved for a few severe diseases, like cancer, AIDS, and glaucoma. It increases appetite and decreases nausea. It has been approved for some off-label uses like ADHD, but this is in a very small population of patients for a trial only.
So, unless you want to catch a terrible terminal disease like AIDS, you will probably not be getting any Marinol.
Dronabinol is Marinol, marinol is the product that is sold, dronabinol is the chemical name
I have heard that YES it can. Consuming very high doses of Marinol can cause death. http://cancer.emedtv.com/marinol/marinol-overdose.html Surely these people cant be ODing on THC. There must be something added or a filler in the marinol. I don't know how much THC is in Marinol but I don't believe that is what causes death. Anyone with info please post.

Marinol
There are a couple different kinds on the market. however, a pretty common one is called Marinol
Marinol contains pure tetrahydrocannibinol (THC), which is the main active component of marijuana. However, marijuana plant material contains many active compounds, which mediate the effects of THC. Marinol does not contain those compounds. The effects are therefore reported to be different. In the strictest sense of "better for you," Marinol is better than smoked marijuana, as smoking any substance irritates the respiratory system and can increase your chances of infection. However, if Marinol is being compared to, say, eaten marijuana, it isn't "better for you" or "worse for you" as marijuana is a non-toxic substance. It would boil down to the individual user.
Marinol and the generic equals.
