HEMP OIL PATCHES

[Cosmos22Marigold]

Can anybody tell me if they have ever used the above. I sent away for a pack fo 20 as they say they are good for the immune system. Now they are here i am worried about using them. I will ask the chemist when I collect my preds on Friday but I just wondered if anybody had tried them.

You are taking steroids to suppress your immune system as it has gone awol. So you really don’t want to boost your immune system. It is not advisable to take hemp patches with steroids, you may increase the side effects of the steroids. If you really want to take them talk to your doctor first. I don’t know if you are taking other drugs, but there other ones with which it is advised not to take hemp patches.

Thanks for advice. I think I'll give them a miss.

piglette has given good advice…you need to check what’s in them and also if they are okay with all your medication.

Yes DL it is good advice so I'll keep away from them. Thanks for reply.

Before you buy - talk to your Pharmacist and that goes for OTC and Homepathic.

Your right jinasc, i do these things on pulse and then regret it but i am not going to agrivate this PMR. All going along nicely on DL slow plan till i had a flare due to stress and overdoing things. You know what it's like. When you feel ok you forget to slow down. I'm getting there so like i said I'll forget about the hemp oil pads.Thanks for reply.
