Dr. Michael Hsu of University of California \u2013 Los Angeles (UCLA) Health Sciences, author of the study, said in a press release.<\/p>\n<p>The researchers <strong>\u2014<\/strong> led by UCLA with contributions from Harvard, UC San Francisco, Washington University School of Medicine and New York University <strong>\u2014<\/strong> set out to determine how strong the research is on the effectiveness of medical cannabis and to offer evidence-based clinical guidance.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/mysterious-marijuana-linked-vomiting-disorder-gets-official-who-code-er-cases-jump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>MYSTERIOUS MARIJUANA-LINKED VOMITING DISORDER GETS OFFICIAL WHO CODE AS ER CASES JUMP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The review found that evidence supporting most <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/healthy-living\/medications\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">medical uses<\/a> of cannabis or cannabinoids is limited or insufficient, the release stated.<\/p>\n<p>There are very few conditions for which cannabinoid therapies have clear, well-established benefits backed by high-quality clinical data, according to the researchers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/heavy-drinkers-cut-alcohol-use-nearly-30-after-adopting-one-new-habit-study-finds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>HEAVY DRINKERS CUT ALCOHOL USE BY NEARLY 30% AFTER ADOPTING ONE NEW HABIT, STUDY FINDS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The strongest evidence supports FDA-approved cannabinoid medications for treating specific conditions, including HIV\/AIDS-related appetite loss, chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, and certain severe <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/healthy-living\/childrens-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">pediatric seizure disorders<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>For many other conditions that are commonly treated with cannabis \u2014 such as chronic pain, insomnia, anxiety or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/mental-health\/ptsd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">post-traumatic stress disorder<\/a> \u2014 evidence from randomized trials did not support meaningful benefit.<\/p>\n<p>The analysis also examined safety concerns \u2014 in particular, how young people using high-potency cannabis may be more likely to suffer higher rates of psychotic symptoms and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/mental-health\/stress-and-anxiety\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">anxiety disorder<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Daily inhaled cannabis use was also linked to increased risks of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/heart-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">coronary heart disease<\/a>, myocardial infarction (heart attack) and stroke when compared with non-daily use.<\/p>\n<p>Based on these findings, the review emphasizes that clinicians should weigh potential benefits against known risks when discussing cannabis with patients.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE FOR MORE HEALTH STORIES<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The authors suggest that clinicians screen patients for cardiovascular risk, evaluate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/mental-health\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mental health history<\/a>, check for possible drug interactions and consider conditions where risks may outweigh benefits.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/newsletters?cmpid=fnfirstnl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR HEALTH NEWSLETTER<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>They recommend open, realistic conversations and caution against assuming that cannabis is broadly effective for medical conditions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Patients deserve honest conversations about what the science does and doesn&#8217;t tell us about medical cannabis,&#8221; Hsu said.<\/p>\n<p>This article is a narrative review rather than a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/health\/medical-research\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">systematic review<\/a>, so it did not use the strict, standardized methods that help reduce bias in how studies are selected and evaluated, the researchers noted.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/lifestyle\/quizzes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The review notes further limitations, including that some evidence comes from observational research rather than randomized trials, which means it cannot establish cause and effect.<\/p>\n<p>The trial results also may not apply to all populations, products or doses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/health\/major-cannabis-study-finds-little-proof-popular-medical-claims-flags-big-dangers\">Source &#8211;
