There is the drug marinol, which has the active ingredient of marijanua
(tetrahydrocannobin). Marinol was used as an anti-emetic and appetite enhancer.
Much better antiemetics (anti vomiting meds) are now on the market .. Zoftran
and Kytril come to mind.

Marinol is sometimes prescribed for patients with glucoma...but I do not
believe this is a standard treatment.
