Can You Have an Allergic Reaction To Cannabis?

The short answer, YES. You can have allergic reactions to cannabis including, but not limited to, sneezing, itchy eyes, watery or dry eyes, along with skin, and lung reactions. You should take caution introducing anything new into your body. This day and age there are so many topicals, and foods, but do you really know what you are putting on your body? The research is out there, that maybe a lot of products we use everyday are bad for us. Anyone can be allergic to tree's, and flowers in nature so it only makes sense that some may experience allergic reactions. Sometimes these reactions can be due to pesticides, and other chemicals sprayed on the plant to maintain the plants health, and make the plant yield a good amount. ALL these factors should be taken into account before trying cannabis. Making sure you trust your dispensery, and making sure you view the lab results, and understanding how labs on cannabis are; done, how accurate they are,  and how often, is very important. Also tring small amounts to start is highly recommended. You can ALWAYS take more, but you can NEVER take less. Some people try cannabis,  and are overwhelmed, or crippled with anxiety, or paranoia, make sure you have a safety plan for how to try cannabis safety.

 Including; knowing how to recognize symptoms, and being aware of when you do, having a plan to cope with the situations listed above like having a friend you can trust to call if you panic, having allergy medicine nearby incase you do have a reaction, make sure you are in a relaxed environment, that you feel comfortable, starting with a very small amount, and having a phone nearby if you need medical assistance. This is extremely rare, especially if you start with a very small amount to see how it effects you, but does happen to some, so just be prepared, and you will feel more relaxed going into it.
