ROUND CREAM COLORED WITH SPOTS ON IT LETTERS UM ON IT I WAS TOLD IT WAS A THC PILL? ## Yeah man. Those are thc pills. Little round ones, like not even pea size. Marinol. Its like the pharmaceutical name for them. ## That is correct and just to clarify, since many people misunderstand, it does not have the same effects as raw THC in marijuana, so you cannot use it to get high. It can have a calming effect for anxiety and stimulate the appetite, but those looking to abuse it will be sorely disappointed. I do not want to infer that anyone that posted here was looking to do so, but there are people that have been asking such things, so I just want to make the real details more clear. You can learn more Marinol details here. Are there any other questions or comments? ## What's the dosage...

I have periphial neuropathy my feet hurt all the time nonstop. A friend talked me into trying a few(4) puffs of marijuana and it stopped the pain completely. I live in alabama so it is ilegal. Is there a medication made from it that is legal here? ## Hi Gene, You might be thinking of Cannabidiol (more commonly know as CBD). This aspect of the marijuana plant is legal across all 50 states and has been proven to be useful for pain management without the "high" that comes with THC (another component of the plant/buds). Your best bet would probably be to search online for it, as I noticed several places that have it available. A close family member of mine is actually taking a 50/50 THC/CBD concentrated spray that helps with her nerve pain. I realize you can't get the THC legall...

red round with UM ## oval an green with liquid in it ## there are two types of thc capsles here in vancouver that my litle sister is getting int . she says there marinol and cecemet. one isgray white cap/ the other is red/white cap. I am concerned she is taking something that she dosn't know. ## cecemet is white & red, just so you know. ANd personally I find it to be very mild. But it depends on whether she bought it or if it was prescribed. ## Marinol and Cecemet are the same thing, just manufactured by different companies, but both contain refined forms of THC. Learn more Marinol details here. And the one mentioned in the first post is the U.S. name brand one. It can work as a very mild analgesic, but is most often used to increase appetite in people that are severely underwei...

What must i do to be prescribed mirinol for glacoma ## hi terry. I'm in Wisconsin too and I have a sneaking suspicion I know the reason. Marinol is VERY Expensive so Dr's just don't tend to give it unless you have amazing insurance. Also due to that price i bet the pharmacy Or clinics refuse to stock it. your possibly a terminal patient as the only time I've seen it prescribed was for a few terminal friend. Back 4 or 5 years ago before California and Colorado and the legalization movement I remember a friend that showed me a cost price of 4800.00$$ on a 120 count 10 mg bottle..for a one 1 month supply! lol probably those high research and fda costs theyre passing on right. Nowadays the emerging extracts Industry may be an option for you but not legally in Wisconsin of co...

I'm a difficult case of fibromyalgia, poor treatment response since 15. I'm on a pharmacy of meds including 150mg daily oxycodone, clonipin, cymbalta, gabapentin. Ext. Well my liver diagnostics are coming back elevated. Thing is I would drop all of them in a heart beat if I found ONE thing that works. medical MJ is NOT legal in Utah. I've lost 35 pounds in 8 months or so but not enough my drs care. My top three symptoms? Pain, nausea, anxiety. Followed by exhaustion. I had to leave the last 3 jobs from this and I just want to try something that may work. Anyone here with ANY fibro/marinol experience? I'm not looking to be high, just functional. I swear Utah will be the 50th state to legalize. ## I am very sorry that you're so miserable and having such problems. Marin...

I would like to know if it is possible for someone who has a prescription (and other documentation from a physician) to purchase Marinol at a Canadian pharmacy and also how much does a prescription cost (on average) in Canada? This in important information for a friend and I appreciate any and all information, thank you. ## Hello, David! How are you? I'm sorry, but I don't have any pricing information. And no, if a medication is available in the U.S., under the law it must be obtained here, unless you were traveling at the time it was prescribed and had to get it filled where you were located. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Hi and thanks for your response. My friend had to go to some sort of arbitration between a judge and not sure if the other party was medical. In ...

found a soft cap brown elliptical pills with no markings in a bag outside the car of my daughters friend... any ideas what it could be? haven't been able to locate it on drug finder. ## I found 2 of these pills under my bed. Also wondering what they could be ## brown capsule no markings ## Tan oblong pill with greenish black liquid insipide capsule ## If there are no markings, it is difficult to track down what they are. Approximately how big are any of them that have been found? If they're tiny, I wonder if they may be Marinol and the marking is just too small to see. Since it's derived from THC, it's commonly diverted and abused in the mistaken belief that people might get high from it.

I am 29 years old male, 5 ft '9, with an average weight of 123 to130 on good days. My slender frame and high metabolism I definitely received from my parents. My mother having a very petite small frame and my father being very tall and skinny and always on the thinner side helped my problems. (Not too mention I developed my body through gymnastics and ballet and swimming in adolescence along with about two years battling a hard drug addiction around 15/16yo - I feel it was a long lasting effect on my physical development in some aspects). I've tried everything! Increasing meals and higher protein, higher carbs, shakes, strength training, steroids (best resulted no side affects for me), marinol (since I'm not in the right states) to just start. I eat like a trash compared too...

Where in the world do I get Marinol in New Mexico?? Who are the Drs. letting us have Marinol in NM? ## Hi bean, Based on my research, Marinol (dronabinol) is listed as being readily available by prescription-only here in the U.S.; so I'm not completely aware why others might be having trouble even getting a script for it. From what I understand, any regular MD should be able to prescribe the stuff. On another note, medical cannabis does appear to be legal in the state of New Mexico. So if anything, it would make more sense in my opinion, to use actual plant matter, as opposed to a synthetic variation made in a lab. Have you already inquired about Marinol's availability with any doctors in your area?

has a um on the soft gel pill ## I know that people are frequently looking for information on this medication, so I'd like to add it…. Marinol contains a pharmaceutical formulation of THC, basically a refined form. It is a very mild analgesic and can also be used to stimulate the appetite. However, it will not create a high effect, like most people get from smoking marijuana. You can learn more Marinol details here. Are there any questions or comments? Is there anything I can help with?

It was a rude responce to looking for samples. It has been proven now that marinol is helping people with chronic pain like myself. I live in Utah and cannot get samples to at least try. I barely tread water on heavy doses of narcotics. 4 spine surgeries (failed) and 2 knee surgeries another replcement required has left me desperate to try anything that may help so I can have any kind of life. So if anyone knows how to get free samples (as there is a way) please email me...Thanks for listening.... ## I've also recently heard of using cannabis leaf for spinal regeneration and numerous other conditions that we're otherwise said to be incurable by the FDA. If you're interested in more information, I've come across a youtube video pertaining to "juicing" the cannabis...

Im on work comp for two herniated discs. Doctors have me on Percocet 10 and zanaflex. Body adjusting. I also am prescribed 3mg of xanax daily along with zoloft for anxiety. Would this pill help if I were to ask? I dont want to take pills that can become habit forming like this. AndI know my tolerance is going up. Can someone please give me an honest answer. Thank you so much ## The Oxycodone in the Percocet is very strong and taking the Xanax into consideration, as well, I really doubt that the Marinol would help you much. Learn more Marinol details here. It's just really not been made with the intention of treating severe issues and it's potency really pales in comparison to what you are already taking. Are there any other questions or comments?

What are the indications for the thc pill. And if a pee test can tell the difference from the smoke? ## For the most part, Dronabinol, also available under the brand name Marinol is used to treat problems such as nausea and loss of appetite in cancer and AIDs patients. And yes, since it isn't actually the same thing as what is in the natural plant, but a purified isomer, a test would be able to tell the difference. You can learn more about it here: Are there any other questions? ## I have been takingthis pill for a couple weeks now and have also taken a urine test. It comes up the same as if you were to smoke marijuana. Most urine test, test for just plain cannabis... So the person looking at the urine screen will not know the difference between the thc pill and/or marijuana itself....

I saw some gel caps Saturday that were very small ~ pea sized ~ they were dark brown in color and said 'WD' in white letters on it. I was told this was THC, but I find that very hard to believe. The fact that there was only one and no bottle left me wondering....... ## You were actually looking at the imprint upside down, the marking is UM and the dark brown are 5mg Marinol gelcaps and yes, that is the medication derived from THC. The active ingredient is actually called Dronabinol and you can learn more about it here: Are there any other questions?
