Breast cancer

My mother has got a breast cancer I would like to buy a cannabis oil to try but i don't know which one. There's too many of them on the market. Any ideas? 

  • Welcome to the forum Chiko although I'm sorry that your mum has been diagnosed with breast cancer.

    While there is evidence that medicinal cannabis products can help manage pain and side-effects from cancer treatment there is currently no reliable evidence that it can effectively treat cancer in patients. Further trials are needed to understand whether cannabis-containing products could be used to treat cancer in the future. You can find out more about the research that is currently being carried out in a very interesting article on our science blog

    Taking cannabis oil could potentially interfere with other cancer treatments given to your mother by a doctor, and can carry other side effects and risks as well so do be sure to discuss this with her medical team before looking in to this further.

    I hope this helps.

    Kind regards,
