As cannabis use becomes legal in more states, many people are seeking it out for medical and recreational use. According to the Allergy & Asthma Network Pain, Exercise and Cannabis Experience survey, many people with asthma are smoking or vaping cannabis which can be harmful to their lungs and airways. We also learned that doctors and patients need to be better educated about marijuana use and its potential health benefits and risks. In this webinar, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of how marijuana use can affect those living with asthma.
