\title{Therapeutic Marijuana}
\description{
To investigate the capacity of marijuana to reduce the side effects of
cancer chemotherapy, researchers performed a double-blind, randomized,
crossover trial. Fifteen cancer patients on chemotherapy were
randomly assigned to receive either a marijuana treatment or a placebo
treatment after their first three sessions of chemotherapy. They were
then crossed over to the opposite treatment for their next 3 sessions.
