We shared our findings from our systematic review and meta-analysis.
In a thorough review, cannabinoids showed promise in battling nausea and vomiting.
While mild side effects were noted, no serious concerns arose. However, it's crucial to note that experiences vary among children.
We surveyed Canadian pediatric oncologists and palliative care physicians, revealing fascinating insights into the use of cannabis for symptom relief in children with cancer.
