You will build up a tolerance to medicinal marijuana with continued use.  In order to be a responsible user of "prescription" medical marijuana you should familiarize yourself with the Nevada Medical Marijuana Program and Federal laws regarding marijuana.


THE LAW:

(NRS 484.379, 488.400, NRS 493.130, NRS 202.257, NRS 455B.080)
