PEDIATRIC CONDITIONS

Coastal Wellness Centers prescribes medical cannabis for children who have health conditions such as:

​

• Multiple sclerosis

• Movement disorders

• Epilepsy

• Cancer

• Crohn’s disease

• ALS

• Glaucoma

​

We can also recommend medical cannabis on a case-by-case basis for your child, depending on their symptoms and potential impacts on your child’s life. 

Clinical studies show that medical cannabis has been effective in relieving the side effects of chemotherapy and radiation in children. It also is proving to be an effective treatment for seizures in children with autism.

Under the supervision of a licensed medical professional, medical cannabis is a safe and effective treatment for most children. The team at Coastal Wellness Centers typically recommends strains of medical cannabis that are high in cannabidiol (CBD) but low in tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). CBD lacks psychoactive effects and doesn’t produce a “high.”
