Treating Depression: Marijuana verses the Anti-Depressant Drug Prozac

Abstract: A 6 page discussion of the relative merits of marijuana in treating depression. Notes that while anti-depressant drugs such as Prozac are effective, they have far more potential complications and costs than marijuana. The author contends that, when properly employed, the medical use of marijuana would result in less long-term harm to the user, have the potential to be just as effective in the treatment of depression as the anti-depressant drug Prozac, and be considerably less costly from a societal level. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
