Cannabis may be able to be used to treat Tourette syndrome. Cannabis can help get rid of some of the effects of Tourette's syndrome. It can help to reduce anxiety as well as the frequency of tics. Tics are repetitive movements and they are involuntary. People that suffer from Tourette's syndrome tend to have two, or more physical tics and at least one vocal tic. These symptoms need to hang around for at least a year for a diagnosis to be made.
Key Takeaways:
