Description
Cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy typically experience nausea and vomiting. The patient is in turn prescribed multiple medications in order to remedy all the side effects. The purpose of this study is to determine if the use of oral cannabis is more effective in reducing nausea and vomiting compared to the use of pharmacological interventions for nausea and vomiting control for people diagnosed with any stage of cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy treatment.
