No, marijuana is not a barbiturate.
There isn't research on this topic, but many people have used cannabis while on prednisone without any complications. That doesn't mean it isn't possible, but I certainly have never heard of it, nor had it happen to me. BTW don't give advice on how he treats his illness, even if your just trying to look out for him. It's not your place, you aren't a doctor, and you obviously don't know much about drugs.
If your going to make up things then try to establish if your words are even true later... Well, lying is lying isn't it? Next time just voice your concern and ask him to look into it.
ps. cannabis really works better for some conditions than pretty much anything else. as someone with Crohn's I can tell you there is no medication so effective and safe as it is. |

Your question kinda made me laugh. Smoking pot doesn't hurt much of anything. I wish I could smoke some myself to help with my pain from weaning off of prednisone.
I'm on prednisone for COPD so smoking anything isn't a smart idea.
I know it sure would help me sleep better. Hmmmmm |

I'm on Prednisone for an allergic reaction to some acne meds. I don't really need to smoke, however, I would like to. Do you think it's safe enough to take that risk? Or should I just be responsible and wait the Prednisone out.
Also, would alcohol have any bad effects when on prednisone? Thanks!
P.S. Thanks for posting this, I'm a nervous wreck when it comes to medication. |
