MEDICAL MARIJUANA FOR HUNTINGTON'S DISEASE SYMPTOMS

Huntington’s Disease is caused by a genetic defect. It is a progressive and fatal disease with no known cure. Symptoms of the disease fall into the movement, cognitive, and psychiatric categories. While the symptoms of the disease can be managed with prescription medication, sometimes the drugs used actually worsen some of the symptoms instead. As one example, Klonopin, or clonazepam, is often prescribed to treat involuntary movement. However, it can also cause drowsiness. 


Medical marijuana can help the patient manage many symptoms of Huntington’s Disease, and the marijuana doctors at Adult Health DNP can help patients find the right strain for them. If you live anywhere in Western New York, including Buffalo, Cheektowaga, Hamburg, or Orchard Park, please contact us today.
