Beginning a new medical treatment can be overwhelming, and medical cannabis is no different. If you have received a cannabis recommendation in the past, you probably wondered how to choose the right strain for your condition.

You can rest assure that you are not the first to face this dilemma.  Deciding which strain is right for you among the numerous strains available at the dispensary can certainly be an overwhelming experience.  It can freeze even knowledgeable marijuana consumers in their tracks.

Although patients are under medical supervision, in many cases, the physicians do not follow up on which cannabis strains are being used or the delivery method. It is not uncommon for patients to turn to  budtenders at the dispensaries for advice on selecting the optimal strain for their medical condition. These budtenders or cannabis providers will usually help guide the patients based on previous customer experiences. They are often the ones to recommend or decide which strain to use and the route of administration.

Unfortunately, this unique situation leaves the care of patients with cannabis providers, who are not medically qualified healthcare providers. Furthermore, much of the information gained by patients and cannabis providers during this process is not communicated back to the physicians, which results in the loss of valuable information.
