Cannabis Is A Diuretic


Recommended Posts

The rapidity with which cannabinoids produce their full diuretic effects was surprising.

 

The finding that cannabinoids also dose-dependently increase diuresis importantly provides a separate and independent physiologic response that can serve as a robust and reliable measure of CB1-mediated actions.

 

In conclusion, the present results demonstrate that behaviorally active doses of exogenous cannabinoids also produce profound diuretic effects in female and male rats. These results suggest that diuresis may occur separately, yet simultaneously, with other measures of cannabinoid activity in laboratory animals and, perhaps, in humans.

greg is asking if anyone has felt more urine flow, a complete emptying of the bladder, a reduction in water retention, etc.

 

greg, what are common symptoms of water retention? swelling of the extremities, like wrists or ankles. swelling of the abdomen. anything else?

YES, I have a neurogenic bladder do to herniated disks t9-t10. And I did notice a more complete emptying of my bladder, which then has given way to less accidents.  I have also noticed that if I use a more indica strain ( for muscle relaxing) I will need to urinate after medicating even if I just went.  I also feel less pressure.
