Can you take bactrim and smoke weed?

Drinking alcoholic beverages will not affect the efficacy of most antibiotics. However, chronic alcohol use and binge drinking affect the liver and may cause changes in the way some drugs, including antibiotics such as doxycycline (Vibramycin, Doryx), are metabolized. In such cases, a higher dose of antibiotic may be required to achieve the same treatment benefit.

Marijuana use is not recommended while on antibiotics for numerous reasons. Specifically, marijuana use with antibiotics can interfere with the absorption and metabolism of the antibiotics in the gastrointestinal tract by affecting the enzymes needed to absorb the antibiotics. This can slow down the amount of time it takes the antibiotics to begin working properly to fight the infection. Marijuana use can also slow down the healing process of the body, which results in a longer recovery time. The way marijuana slows down the healing process is that THC the main chemical component of marijuana is fat soluble so it becomes absorbed by the white blood cells in the body. The white blood cells, which have a lipid (fat) component, are your body's "fighter" cells that destroy "bad" bacteria by eating it. However, when THC becomes absorbed by the lipid component of the white blood cells these cells cannot function properly to destroy the "bad" bacteria.

If the antibiotics cannot be absorbed properly and your white blood cells cannot fight the infection because of the marijuana use, then your chances of a quick recovery from an illness are decreased.

Is medical marijuana expensive?

All prices are per gram. These are medical marijuana cost. I have added street value. For private organic Cannabis $10 per gram. For Government (non-organic Cannabis $15.00 per gram. Some compassion clubs charge between $17.00 to $20.00 for non-organie Cannabis. Street Cannabis can run between $8.00 and $15.00 per gram

1 ounce = 28.3495231 grams

So if you were to take private organic Cannabis at $10 a gram - one ounce would cost just a few cents under three hundred ($280.00) USD dollars

I hope this answers your question on what is the cost of medical marijuana.

What does medical marijuana do for the human body?

There are several chemicals in cannabis that are essential for proper bodily functions and all of them are produced by the human body when they are needed. Three different chemicals are known stimulate the growth of nerve and brain cells. Two other chemicals actually coat brain cells to prevent them from suffering damage and promote healing after traumatic brain injury. Six chemicals enhance the heart's ability to increase circulation by either dilating blood vessels, increasing gas transfer, or dissolving toxins. And those are simply the chemicals that CANNOT be created artificially. All of those chemicals are produced by the human body, and cannabis (marijuana) is one of the few plants that also have these substances in quantities that make it easy (inexpensive) to acquire without intensive knowledge of chemistry and medicine.

SMOKING marijuana, however, negates most of the beneficial effects of ingesting cannabis because it, like all plants, release tar, hot ash, and carbon monoxide that will damage the lungs, heart, and brain. Cannabis by itself can be beneficial...if pharmaceutical companies were allowed to grow and extract the many chemicals found in cannabis that cannot be synthesized.

Does the American medical association support medical marijuana?

They are currently reviewing their position. They were presented with the recent randomized controlled trials evidence and considering whether the evidence supports reclassifying marijuana's status as a Schedule I substance. Several groups within the AMA have already voiced their support.


The short answer is no because there are many money squandering lobbyists that can easily manipulate the American Medical Association into believing things that aren't true. This is done by the government who doesn't support it because they are embarrassed that they have spent over 15 billion dollars on a war against a plant. Its similar to the mess in Iraq, the U.S. is embarrassed to pull out because they have been proven wrong, again.

Medical use was intended for terminal patients to ease their pain. Smoking the plant by non-terminal patients causes terminal illnesses identical to smoking tobacco. Smoking anything, causes problems with the respiratory system. Also, how does one control the dose of a smoked drug?

What does it mean to say that medical marijuana clinics operate lawfully If something is against federal law but allowed by state law is it lawful?

The constitution grants states the ability to govern themselves almost completely. The only time the federal government can directly intervene is either by request of the state government or if there is a crime committed that crosses state lines (and thus covers multiple jurisdictions).

So, even if there is a federal law against something (like medical marijuana), the state can essentially veto it.

How do you find out if a medicine is covered by your medical card?

Usually, there is a customer service number or website printed on your insurance card. You can call and ask for a copy of the company's "Formulary" which is a listing of the different prescription medications that they cover. Many companies also allow you to access this list on their website. It is common these days to find that different types of drugs have different levels of coverage. For instance, you will often pay more for certain brands than for others. Some companies require 'step-therapy' before paying for some drugs. This means that you must be given a different (generally less expensive) drug first, and they will only pay for the other one if the less expensive one does not work.

Would medical marijuana be prescribed for the pain associated with shingles?

Medicinal marijuana is typically only prescribed for chronic pain, meaning, intolerable, and incurable day to day pain (back pain is likely most common). If your shingles outbreaks are frequent and or pain management is a long-term issue, I don't see why not. Pain from shingles can last long (sometimes forever) after the infection subsides. This is due to nerve damage that the virus can cause. If this is the case for you, this would be considered "chronic pain" and you would be eligible for a prescription.
