All participants perceived improvements in eating, in two cases due to nausea reduction rather than appetite stimulation; psychoactive effects were well tolerated, but transient burdens such as throat irritation and unpleasant taste/smell effects were reported.
n=16 (10 patients with advanced cancer + 6 caregiving family members), vaporised cannabis flowers for tumour-associated anorexia; all respondents perceived improvements in eating, whereby in two cases this was attributed to nausea reduction rather than appetite stimulation. Psychoactive effects well tolerated; transient burdens due to throat irritation and taste.
The third of four GRADE levels, the effect estimate is probably reliable.
