(Medical-NewsWire.com, July 09, 2015 ) Miami, FL -- According to the International Business Times Sue Sisley is the first research to be granted permission by the FDA to conduct research on medical marijuana's effectiveness for treating PTSD. The study comes about in an attempt to redress suicide rates among veterans with PTSD who return home and suffer from a medley of traumas incurred overseas. Sisley speaks all over the nation about the medical uses of marijuana. The International Business Times quotes Sisley, "We do have an epidemic of veteran suicide in this country. The question is, is the epidemic related to untreated or under-diagnosed PTSD, and could marijuana help[ deal with that epidemic?" The ultimate end of Sisley's research is to measure the viability of replacing numerous medications including anti-anxiety medicine and antidepressants when marijuana may be a viable substitute to eliminate the need of pharmacological solutions which may cause addiction down the line. Miami Drug Rehab suggests careful caution when conducting research for medical marijuana, as prescription medication addiction is common among patients.
Located in Florida, Miami Drug Rehab provides the entire united states with drug and alcohol rehab in Miami. The facility has seen a steady stream of clients coming in for treatment for opiate medications, spurring an associate of the addiction treatment center in Miami to comment on the newly approved research into medical marijuana for PTSD,
"While 28 states have approved medical marijuana, the substance is still potentially harmful and addictive. That being said, and in the forefront of my thoughts, many prescription medications for pain are much more addictive than marijuana. Exploring every avenue of treatment is important to broaden our understanding of the resources we have available to us- but researchers must remember marijuana can cause addiction, and the same withdrawal problems found across addiction patients.
"Should medical marijuana become commonplace one day in the U.S. it's important we establish the potential dangers of using medical marijuana more aggressively than we have for opiates. We are in the midst of an opiate epidemic, and everything we can do to stop another is our responsibility as healthcare professionals."

In addition to heroin rehab in Miami, the center specializes in catering treatment plans to addressing client's unique circumstances of addiction.
