Is vaping medical marijuana a viable option for legal patients? Vaporizing and vaping are interchangeable terms. This term refers to the process of heating dried cannabis flower or concentrates to a temperature below the combustion point. Typically, this means roughly 350°F to 440°F. Doing so releases the desired cannabinoids and terpenes. However, harmful tar, carbon monoxide and other byproducts which come with combustion are not created.

Igniting cannabis in a joint or a pipe heats the material and smoke up to a high temperature. This can be harsh on the lungs (hence, the coughing). Vaping heats cannabis oil and flower at much lower temperatures. Thus, releasing the active ingredients into a fine vapor mist.

Research shows cannabis smoke is less toxic than cigarette smoke. But, it can still cause lung irritation and respiratory distress—particularly in immunocompromised patients. Burning cannabis produces over 100 chemicals and compounds, several of them known to be toxic.

The effects of vaping cannabis are similar to those of smoking, with similar onset time and duration. Many patients feel vaping is a healthier option for them. Vaping doesn’t ignite the cannabis material, and thus, releases no smoke or carcinogens. That means many potentially harmful respiratory effects from smoking cannabis can be avoided.

Does Vaping Medical Marijuana Have Benefits Compared to Smoking?

Research on vaping health risks has found people who use vaporizers report fewer respiratory problems than those who smoke cannabis. The health benefits of vaping cannabinoids can be especially significant for medical cannabis patients. They often consume more cannabis on a regular basis than casual or recreational users for relief of their symptoms.

Vaping also provides the added benefit of producing a virtually odorless vapor. That means it can be done discreetly and without lingering smells.

All vaporizers have a heating source and a delivery system. However, there are numerous styles of vaporizers on the market today. Popular iterations include:

  • Stationary tabletop models,
  • Boxy portable vaporizers, and

Pre-loaded vape pens also allow for precise dosing, which is particularly important for patients who are new to concentrates. Pen vapes give users the ability to control exactly how much or how little they want to consume, without wasting any oil.

Distillates is a highly pure form of cannabis oil. It offers advantages for medical cannabis patients looking to benefit from cannabinoids without exposing themselves to any impurities.

Many patients prefer vaporizing this type of highly purified oil. Ultimately, because it provides strong, specific cannabinoid and terpene formulations designed to be impactful.
