Cannabis & Parkinson's Disease: What You Need to Know About Symptom Relief and Safety


Listen Later

Can cannabis really help manage Parkinson's symptoms? In this episode (watch on YouTube), we dive into the science, the possibilities, and the risks. From non-motor symptoms like sleep issues and anxiety to potential interactions with common Parkinson's medications, we break down what CBD and THC might offer. You'll also learn about the many forms of cannabis — including gummies, tinctures, topicals, patches, and more — and which options are most commonly used in Parkinson's care.

We'll also explore important drug interactions with levodopa, dopamine agonists, and antidepressants — plus how to talk to your doctor about trying cannabis safely. Whether you're a person with Parkinson's, a caregiver, or a clinician, this episode offers a balanced, evidence-based look at cannabis as part of a holistic PD care strategy.
