What is the difference between Dronabinol and medical marijuana for nausea and appetite?
I've heard Dronabinol is a synthetic version of THC, the active ingredient in marijuana, and I'm wondering how it compares to medical marijuana for managing symptoms of nausea and appetite, especially in cancer patients. Are there significant differences in effectiveness or side effects? Are there specific scenarios where one would be preferred over the other? I'm also curious about the legality and accessibility of both options. Thoughts?
