Yes. There is so much we don't know about this drug but my husband is making good use of his two cannabinoid receptors and taking it just before he goes to bed. Up here, it is legally prescribed and we have a very high population of patients with all types of cancer using it for both palliative and (hopefully) curative effects, although the latter remains debatable. It is also prescribed for migraine but hasn't helped me. He is taking the oil form (Rick Simpson variety) in suppository form. He has three large binders full of studies and various articles about it and knows a lot of patients who have been on it for varying periods of time.
There seems to be ongoing confusion out there about whether CBDs or THCs are more effective in an anti-neoplastic sense. We know that THCs are the palliative actives, producing the high, but I have always understood that the CBDs are more likely to have anti-neoplastic effects. This seems up in the air again and Don is busy with a further raft of research to wade through.
